Hubertus IPA

Tap to rate

Intense hop aroma from cold hopping meets the fruity taste of top-fermenting yeast and a pleasant bitter finish on top of the tongue. Five types of malt give this IPA its amber colour, and three hop varieties go into the boil. In the lagering tank it matures for three weeks with American aroma hops added, a method known as cold hopping.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Hubertus IPA

◎ Appearance

Amber hue derived from a five-malt bill, bright and transparent with fine carbonation evident throughout. A dense, off-white head forms on the pour and adheres persistently to the glass walls, leaving defined lacing with each sip.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with assertive American hop aromatics from cold-hopping treatment—citrus, pine, and resinous undertones dominate. Below sits a fruity yeast character and subtle floral notes that round the profile without obscuring the hop-forward impression.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and malt-supported, with five varieties providing subtle breadth and balance. Mid-palate shifts to pronounced hoppy bitterness and tropical fruit notes, while a resinous quality persists; 60 IBUs assert themselves without overwhelming the underlying maltz structure.

◑ Finish

Bitter finish settles pleasantly across the upper palate, lingering with dry resinous notes and faint citrus echo. The aftertaste remains hop-driven yet balanced, with no harshness or astringency.

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.
