Very dry and assertively bitter.
The malt sets the frame and lets the hops carry the flavour.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Rhombus IPA
◎ Appearance
Rhombus IPA presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright translucence. The head forms quickly and persists with fine white foam, leaving clean lacing down the glass. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating steady streams of fine bubbles.
◌ Aroma
The nose leads with assertive citrus notes—lemon zest and grapefruit pith dominate—backed by clean noble hop character. A subtle malty sweetness grounds the profile without dominating. The overall impression is crisp and herbaceous, with no harsh alcohol or yeast-derived compounds.
◐ Taste
Entry is bright and dry, with citric hop bitterness settling immediately on the palate. The mid-palate maintains hop intensity while a light bready malt foundation provides balance and prevents one-dimensionality. Bitterness is clean and measured at 60 IBU, finishing dry without astringency.
◑ Finish
The finish is short to medium, with lingering citrus notes and gentle hop bitterness fading cleanly. Aftertaste remains dry and refreshing, inviting another sip.
