Lupuloid

Tap to rate

It took the brewery four years to get here: Lupuloid is its first straight-up IPA, no funny business, made from nothing but malt, yeast, water and lots of hops, namely Citra, Mosaic and Equinox. Wheat and flaked oats sit alongside the extra pale base. Added to the core range, it comes in at 6.7% and smells fruity.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Lupuloid

◎ Appearance

Lupuloid presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright translucence. The head forms quickly and clings persistently to the glass walls, leaving distinct lacing with each sip. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a fine, sustained bead.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bold tropical stone fruit—ripe mango and pulped peach are immediately apparent. Supporting layers of citrus zest and herbal Edelhopfen character emerge with time in the glass. The Malz base remains restrained and clean, allowing the hop aromatics to dominate without any oxidative or yeasty notes.

◐ Taste

The palate entry is smooth and approachable, with tropical fruit flavors mirroring the aroma—mango and peach sit center-stage. Mid-palate builds measured bitterness and light herbal grip from the three-hop blend, balanced against subtle Malz sweetness that prevents harshness. The finish is dry and crisp without astringency, leaving a clean hoppy aftertaste.

Serve at 8–11°C

Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.

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.

Drink fresh. Session IPAs are brewed to be consumed young — the hops are at their best now.
