What is a Session IPA?

Serve & Enjoy
How to get the most out of Jeju Pellia
Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.
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.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Jeju Pellia
◎ Appearance
Jeju Pellia presents a bright, pale golden hue that captures the essence of island sunshine. Crystal clarity shines through with excellent light transmittance, while a modest white head forms and dissipates quickly — typical of a sessionable IPA. Effervescent carbonation creates a lively visual presentation with persistent fine bubbles.
◌ Aroma
The nose opens with vibrant tropical and citrus hop notes, evoking fresh grapefruit, lime, and subtle stone fruit character. Delicate floral undertones add complexity without overwhelming the senses, while a clean malt base provides gentle grain support. Overall, the aroma is crisp and inviting — perfectly suited to warm, seaside conditions.
◐ Taste
The palate delivers a crisp, clean entry with pronounced citrus and subtle tropical fruit flavors that dance across the tongue. Mid-palate presents balanced hoppy character with moderate bittering (35 IBU) that feels restrained yet present, never aggressive. The finish dries cleanly without leaving harsh edges, maintaining refreshment throughout.
◑ Finish
The finish is characteristically dry and refreshing, with the bittering fading gracefully into a clean aftertaste. No lingering harshness — instead, a smooth, inviting quality that beckons another sip.
