Pentland IPA
Pale straw under a clean white head, with subtle citrus and floral notes from a blend of European and American hops. Bitterness stays moderate, and a smooth malt backbone underpins the fruity hop character. At 3.9 % ABV, a sessionable pale ale that sits between traditional Scottish brewing and modern hop-forward beers.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Pentland IPA
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
