◐ Taste

The palate delivers immediate citrus punch balanced by moderate bitterness (40 IBU) that never overwhelms. Mid-palate shows layered tropical and stone fruit complexity from the dry hop charge, with a crisp, clean malt backbone providing structure without heaviness. The finish remains dry and refreshing throughout.

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.
