Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Manawa
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.

What is a IPA?
IPAs are hop-forward ales with 5.5–7.5% ABV and IBU 40–70+. Bold hop aroma — citrus, tropical, resinous — with firm bitterness and a dry, clean finish.
Finding a similar IPA
hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same fruity, tropical, peach character as Manawa will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
