Serge
Super juicy tropical fruit, with intense mango, guava and lychee, runs through this hazy, full-bodied session-strength IPA and finishes on a light, gentle bitterness. Citra hops are used in abundance at 4.5%. Serge takes its name from the interwoven serge fabric and won silver in the pale ale class at the 2025 SIBA North East bottle and can awards.

Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Serge
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.
