Guapo

Tap to rate

Hazy pale gold double dry-hopped micro IPA with tropical and citrus aromas. Juicy, citrusy, fruity and crisp, tropically hoppy with a crisp lemony finish. Brewers wrestled as much flavour into it as possible at only 3.4 %. Naked oat malt and wheat with Cascade, Citra, Bru-1 and Strata. Guapo means good looking, great tasting.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus and tropical fruit notes, driven by Citra and Strata hops—lime zest and passionfruit linger in the foreground. A subtle base of naked oat and wheat malt provides gentle cereal sweetness without dominating the profile. The double dry-hop treatment creates a fresh, juicy character that feels airy rather than heavy.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and juicy, with immediate citrus flavors unfolding across the palate—lemon, orange, and grapefruit interweave with subtle tropical notes. Mid-palate remains light and refreshing, with the oat-wheat base providing a soft platform without excess body. Bitterness is restrained at 22 IBU, offering gentle herbal notes and a lemony snap rather than assertive resin.

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.

About Micro IPA

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a Micro 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 Micro IPA

hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same hazy, citrusy, fruity character as Guapo will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
