Signatur IPA

Tap to rate

An homage to the classic American West Coast IPAs: an intense, fruity aroma, a pronounced bitterness and a dry finish. The beer is packed with Centennial, Citra and Mosaic hops, all grown in the Yakima Valley in the north-western United States. It is billed as a modern classic of the brewery’s signature series and sits among its hoppiest beers.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with an assertive blend of citrus and tropical fruit notes driven by Citra and Mosaic hops, layered over subtle herbal and resinous undertones characteristic of Centennial. A light floral character emerges with aeration, while the malt foundation remains clean and understated, allowing the hop aromatics to dominate completely.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with bright, punchy bitterness that builds steadily through the mid-palate, supported by grapefruit and pine notes that linger across the tongue. The malt backbone is lean and biscuity, providing just enough sweetness to balance the aggressive hop character without cloying. Resinous texture coats the mouth, emphasizing the drying effect of the noble hop varieties.

A long, dry finish with lingering bitterness and herbal-resinous notes that fade gradually over several minutes. The aftertaste remains crisp and clean, with a faint citrus memory that recalls the Yakima Valley terroir.

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.
