Fresh Squeezed IPA

Tap to rate

Fresh Squeezed IPA is hopped with Citra and Mosaic over a base of pale, Munich and crystal malt. Grapefruit, orange and tangerine lead the aroma, followed by passion fruit, mango and a light pine resin. A thin layer of caramel malt holds the hops in balance, and the medium body ends in a clean, firm bitterness. The brewery also makes an alcohol-free version under the same name.

Pale golden in color with excellent clarity and a bright, luminous quality. The head forms with fine, tight bubbles and maintains good retention, leaving distinct lacing down the glass as you drink.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus—prominent grapefruit and orange, followed by tangerine and passion fruit notes. A light pine resin thread runs through the background, while the Citra and Mosaic hops deliver their characteristic tropical and stone-fruit character without any harsh or vegetal edge.

◐ Taste

The palate enters clean and crisp, with the citrus and stone-fruit notes from the aroma translating into the mouth feel. A thin layer of caramel malt sweetness emerges mid-palate, providing structure and balance against the hop bitterness. The finish is dry and firm, with a measured 50 IBU bitterness that lingers without becoming astringent.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste is relatively short and clean, leaving behind subtle grapefruit pith and a light resinous dryness. Medium body keeps the beer feeling light and refreshing rather than heavy.

Serve at 8–11°C

Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.

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.

Drink fresh. Session IPAs are brewed to be consumed young — the hops are at their best now.
