Nealko IPA Free

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with bright clarity and fine carbonation creating a delicate, persistent head. The beer presents a clean, inviting visual profile typical of the style, with good foam retention that gradually subsides to a thin collar around the glass.

◌ Aroma

A vibrant hop-forward nose leads with citrus and tropical fruit notes from the American varieties Summit, Citra, and Amarillo. The cold hopping technique amplifies fresh orange zest and peach skin aromatics, while the malt base remains understated, allowing the herbal and resinous Simcoe character to emerge on the second pass.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with crisp, bright citrus flavors that carry into the mid-palate where white peach and subtle tropical stone fruit develop. A balanced bitterness emerges cleanly without harsh edges, supported by a light malz sweetness that prevents the beer from becoming one-dimensional. The refreshing quality builds throughout, with the hop bitterness lingering in the finish.

◑ Finish

A medium-length finish with persistent hop bitterness and lingering citrus notes that gradually fade. The aftertaste remains clean and refreshing without cloying residue, making this an approachable non-alcoholic option.
