Coconuts

Tap to rate

An IPA at 7% dry-hopped with Galaxy, Citra and Citra Cryo and then conditioned on coconut. It is one of the longest-running names in the range and one of the few Superflux beers built around an addition rather than a hop bill. An older brewery text gives the hops as Citra and Vic Secret, so the recipe has changed.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Coconuts

◎ Appearance

Pale golden color with a hazy, turbid body characteristic of the style and adjunct conditioning. A dense, creamy head forms on the pour with good retention and lacing along the glass. Bright carbonation visible throughout, with active bubbles rising steadily.

◌ Aroma

Galaxy and Citra hops dominate with pronounced citrus and tropical fruit notes—lime zest, mango, and passionfruit—layered over a resinous, herbal backbone. Coconut adds a subtle creamy sweetness to the mid-nose without overwhelming the hop character. Clean fermentation allows the aromatics to shine with minimal yeast contribution.

◐ Taste

Entry is bright and hoppy, with a juicy blend of citrus and stone fruit flavors that transition into a tropical, fruity mid-palate. The coconut conditioning lends a soft, creamy mouthfeel and subtle coconut-cream undertone. Moderate bitterness arrives in the mid-palate and carries through, balanced by the beer's clean, dry structure and 7% alcohol.

◑ Finish

Dry and clean with a lingering resinous, hoppy aftertaste that gradually fades. Coconut residue leaves a faint creamy note on the palate, preventing harshness and providing a soft landing.

Serve at 8–11°C

Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.

Tulip glass

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.
