#IPA

Tap to rate

A modern IPA built on a blend of Simcoe, Amarillo and Citra. It is a bit hazy, though not at the level of #DIPA, and aims for balance between drinkability and juicy flavor rather than the richest flavor possible. The brewery sees that balance as where IPAs are heading right now.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for #IPA

◎ Appearance

The beer presents a pale golden hue with a soft, diffuse haze that sits comfortably between clarity and opacity. A modest white head forms and recedes steadily, leaving delicate traces of lacing around the glass. The carbonation appears gentle and well-integrated, appropriate to the beer's moderate 5.9% ABV.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus notes—lemon zest and grapefruit skin—backed by the distinctive fruity-floral signature of Simcoe. Amarillo and Citra contribute layers of peach and tropical stone fruit, with hints of passionfruit and melon. Underneath runs a clean malt base that balances without dominating, allowing the hop character to remain in focus.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and approachable, with juicy tropical and citrus flavors that bloom across the mid-palate without heaviness. The blend of three Edelhopfen creates a harmonious flavor without sharp edges; bitterness remains restrained at 33 IBU, registering as a gentle, drying presence rather than assertiveness. The body is smooth and light, supporting drinkability without sacrificing depth.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and relatively brief, with a lingering citrus and stone-fruit dryness that fades gracefully. No harsh aftertaste; instead, a gentle hop-derived minerality and a faint sweetness from the Malz remind the drinker of balance.

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.
