Troost IPA
Tropical fruit, citrus and floral notes lead the nose; on the palate come caramel, honey and orange, then a fine bitter finish. Magnum, Cascade and Chinook set a firm but balanced bitterness, and a Citra dry hop pushes the hop aroma forward. A full, layered 6% IPA at 40 IBU, brewed in volume at Westergas.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Troost IPA
Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.
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.

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 tropical, hoppy, honey character as Troost IPA will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
