Beyond
Citrus and pine drive this IPA, and it tastes fresh. In the can it runs at 6.5%, on draft at 5.5%, brewed from barley malt alone. The brewery calls it its newest core range beer; the earlier pint can and the draft version were labelled Classic IPA, while the current can carries the name Bold New World IPA.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Beyond
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.
