Tørke

Tap to rate

A Brut IPA with imperial strength that is surprisingly easy to drink: sweet apricot and peach with notes of tart grapefruit and pineapple, a bone-dry finish and a light body that lets a lush, fruit-like hop aroma shine through. Brewed with plenty of Cashmere, Citra and New Zealand Chinook hops. The name means drought, and the brewery announces that the drought is over.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.

What is a Brut IPA?

IPAs are hop-forward ales with 5.5–7.5% ABV and IBU 40–70+. Bold hop aroma — citrus, tropical, resinous — with firm bitterness and a dry, clean finish.

Finding a similar Brut IPA

hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same dry, fruity, peach character as Tørke will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
