Liquid Metal
Liquid Metal is an IPA dry-hopped with the American aroma hops Simcoe, Summit and Crystal. They give it a fresh, intensely fruity character, set against a balanced body and a marked bitterness that keeps the beer crisp. Alcohol is 5.3%. Name and presentation draw on the hard rock and heavy metal the village of Wacken is known for.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Liquid Metal
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.
