Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for IPA 14°

◎ Appearance

Light amber to golden hue with excellent clarity and bright translucence. A dense, cream-colored head forms readily and clings to the glass with persistent lacing. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, revealing fine bubbles throughout the body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with assertive noble hop character—citrus zest, subtle pine, and herbal notes dominate the upper register. Beneath lies a clean, slightly sweet malt base with hints of tropical fruit and light floral undertones. No yeast cloudiness or oxidation; the aroma remains fresh and inviting.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and direct, with strong hop bitterness immediately present across the palate. Mid-palate develops layers of citrus and tropical fruit character that complement rather than mask the 60 IBU foundation. The malt provides sufficient backbone to balance the bitterness without sweetness, maintaining a dry, clean profile throughout.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately long, with hop bitterness lingering pleasantly into the aftertaste. No harsh astringency or cloying sweetness; the beer resolves with a refreshing, slightly peppery fade.

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.
