Very dry and assertively bitter.
The malt sets the frame and lets the hops carry the flavour.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for #ISO
◎ Appearance
Bright pink hue dominates the glass, a direct result of the organic dragon fruit infusion. The off-white head forms with moderate density and persists gently, leaving delicate rings of lacing as the beer is consumed. Carbonation is visible and lively, supporting the visual presentation of this elevated IPA.
◌ Aroma
The nose opens with pronounced stone fruit character: ripe cherry and raspberry are immediately apparent, joined by bright grapefruit notes from the Mosaic and Citra hops. These Pacific Northwest varieties provide crisp citrus backbone that frames the fruit-forward entry. The pitaya character adds subtle tropical depth without overwhelming the aromatic profile.
◐ Taste
The palate follows the aromatics with layered fruit expression: pitaya and mango arrive early, supported by a gentle peach undertone. The 60 IBUs provide structure and a measured bitterness that balances the fruit sweetness without dominating. The medium-full body carries these flavors through the mid-palate with richness that sustains the drinking experience.
◑ Finish
The finish extends the sweetness appreciably, with lingering fruit character and a dry, resinous hop impression in the final moments. At 10.3% ABV, the alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated into the overall structure.
Serve & Enjoy
How to get the most out of #ISO
Serve at 8–11°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.
The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
Store in a cool, dark place. Check the best-before date on the label for guidance.
