Coconuts

Superflux Beer Company
Tap to rate
🌍 Canada · IPA · One of 64 IPAs in hopIQ

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.

Firmly bitter and dry.

A trim base, a hop-led finish — the classic setup for a hop-forward beer.

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 & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Coconuts

Serve at 8–11°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

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

Tulip glass
Recommended for this style

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.

About IPA

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

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 hoppy, citrusy, fruity character as Coconuts will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
