Boréale IPA Légère

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue that catches light with clarity and brightness. The head forms with moderate density and dissipates to a thin collar, leaving delicate lacing on the glass. Fine carbonation streams rise steadily through the translucent body.

◌ Aroma

Citra hops lead with pronounced grapefruit and orange zest notes, accompanied by a resinous undertone that adds herbal depth. The thin malt backbone remains restrained, allowing the aromatic hop character to occupy the foreground without competing mineral or grain notes.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with citrus flavors developing immediately across the palate. The resinous quality persists through the mid-palate with a moderate, clean bitterness that never overwhelms; the minimal malt body ensures hop clarity dominates the experience.

◑ Finish

A dry, brisk finish with lingering citrus and resin notes fading into a pleasant hop bite. The aftertaste remains clean and refreshing without any sweetness or residual heaviness.

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.
