Blueprint

◎ Aussehen

Blueprint presents a hazy, pale golden body characteristic of the session IPA style, with suspended yeast contributing to its cloudy presentation. The head is moderate and persistent, with fine carbonation visible throughout. Cask-conditioning contributes to a soft, natural appearance without aggressive fizz.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus and grapefruit notes, supported by subtle tropical undertones that suggest stone fruit and light piney character. Chinook and Ekuanot hops deliver a bold, resinous hop presence without overwhelming herbal or vegetal notes. A clean fermentation profile allows the hop aromatics to remain in the foreground.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens juicy and fruit-forward, with grapefruit and citrus zest providing a refreshing entry that belies the beer's moderate alcohol. Mid-palate shows a light malt backbone—clean and understated—that supports without competing with hop flavors. The finish develops a smooth, lingering bitterness that remains balanced and refined rather than aggressive.

◑ Abgang

The bitterness extends steadily through the aftertaste without harshness, fading to a dry, slightly resinous conclusion. At 4.3% ABV, the finish remains light and sessionable, inviting another sip.
