LiL SLURP

Tap to rate

NoDa's ultra-low-IBU juicy IPA — 6% ABV, 8 IBU, engineered to drink like tropical fruit juice while carrying a full-strength IPA hop bill. Where Radio Haze holds moderate bitterness, LiL SLURP removes it almost entirely — the juice-bomb slot in the core lineup, done deliberately. The name is not subtle. Neither is the beer.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for LiL SLURP

Pale golden-yellow body with exceptional clarity and bright luminosity. A modest white head forms and dissipates quickly, leaving minimal lacing on the glass. Fine carbonation is evident throughout, contributing to a light, effervescent visual character.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe stone fruits—peach and apricot—layered beneath bright citrus notes of orange and grapefruit zest. Tropical fruit undertones of mango and passionfruit emerge as the beer warms. The hop profile is present but restrained, allowing the fruit-forward character to dominate without sharp resinous edges.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with smooth, creamy malt sweetness balanced by pronounced tropical and stone-fruit flavors. The bitterness is nearly absent—the ultra-low IBU count of 8 allows juice-bomb character to be the defining feature. Mid-palate thickness is full without weight, offering a silky mouthfeel that drinks closer to premium fruit juice than traditional IPA.

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.
