Santas IPA
A golden India pale ale under a lovely white head, with Simcoe and Cascade hops adding fresh notes of citrus and pine needles. The hops bring a good balance between malt and hops, and the beer reads as bitter. Santas IPA is a Christmas IPA from the brewery's seasonal range.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Santas IPA
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.
