Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Tiger Blood

Tiger Blood pours a vivid, deep red that catches the light with clarity and translucence. The head is substantial and persistent, clinging to the glass with fine Schaumkleiden. Carbonation is brisk and visible, lending a lively effervescence to the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright strawberry and watermelon notes, fruity and inviting without being cloying. Cascade hops contribute a mild herbal undertone, while the Ekuanot adds subtle citrus depth. A soft, grainy Malz backdrop supports the fruit without dominating the aromatic profile.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and approachable, with the fruit character—strawberry and watermelon—translating cleanly from nose to palate. The oats and wheat lend a soft, creamy mouthfeel, while the lactose rounds out the mid-palate with gentle sweetness. Bitterness arrives measured at 60 IBU, providing balance without dominating the fruit-forward character.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with lingering strawberry notes fading into a subtle herbal dryness. Aftertaste remains fruity rather than astringent, befitting the beer's accessible ABV and fruit emphasis.

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.
