Very dry and assertively bitter.
A trim base, a hop-led finish — the classic setup for a hop-forward beer.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Interurban IPA
◎ Appearance
Deep golden to amber hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head. The beer displays crisp carbonation and maintains strong lacing on the glass throughout the tasting.
◌ Aroma
Assertive hop presence dominates the nose, with bright citrus notes—orange and grapefruit—layered over a pronounced resinous character. Chinook, Centennial and Amarillo varieties create a complex herbal backdrop with subtle pine undertones, while the clean malt foundation remains in support without competing.
◐ Taste
The palate opens with snappy bitterness that integrates seamlessly with the citrus-driven hop profile. Mid-palate reveals layers of orange zest and resin balanced by a clean, malty sweetness that prevents astringency. The finish builds gradually, with hop character persisting through the swallow without harshness.
◑ Finish
Medium length with a dry, refreshing aftertaste dominated by lingering citrus and mild resin notes. The beer concludes crisp and inviting, leaving no heavy residue.
