Flax
Floral notes bloom alongside citrusy flavours and finish on pine in this bold yet bright 6.6% IPA. Flax is named after the humble flax, the unsung hero of the floral world, whose seed and stem fibres become strong, lightweight linen, and SALT calls the beer just as versatile.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Flax
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 floral, piney, citrusy character as Flax will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
