The grain stays in the background so every note the beer offers can come from the hops.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Primátor IPA
◎ Appearance
Primátor IPA presents a clear, amber-to-copper hue that glows with warmth in direct light. The head rises with vigor and clings to the glass walls in fine, persistent lacing. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, supporting a clean, inviting visual structure.
◌ Aroma
The nose opens with a bold, resinous character from the six-hop blend, dominated by tropical stone fruit and citrus notes from Citra and Galaxy. Beneath lies the soft embrace of caramel malt and a whisper of floral incense from Summit and Chinook. The overall impression is aromatic and forward, with spice and herbal undertones adding complexity.
◐ Taste
A sharp, forceful bitterness arrives immediately and commands the palate with confident presence. The fuller malt body—built from Pilsner, wheat, Munich and caramel malts—provides ballast and warmth, with caramel sweetness emerging in the mid-palate to balance the hop bite. Tropical fruit, fragrant resin and citrus unfold gradually, layering over the foundation of grain.
◑ Finish
The finish is dry and lingering, with bitterness and resinous hop character persisting long after the swallow. A gentle warmth from the 6.5% alcohol adds weight without harshness, while the malt sweetness fades cleanly.
Serve & Enjoy
How to get the most out of Primátor 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.
