The palate opens with crisp, refreshing citrus notes that lead into a well-balanced mid-palate combining light malt sweetness with assertive hop bitterness. The hoppy character persists throughout, delivering grapefruit and pine flavors with a light body that never feels thin or underdeveloped.

Serve at 7–10°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.
