Hops & Barley IPA

◎ Aussehen

Medium golden color with bright clarity and lively carbonation. A full, creamy head forms on the pour and clings to the glass with persistent lacing throughout the drink. The beer presents a clean, inviting visual profile typical of a well-crafted IPA.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus and orange hop character, the result of rotating international and national varieties that shift with each brew. Beneath the fruity top notes sits a clean, supportive malt base without heavy grain or alcohol warmth. The aroma is fresh and forward without becoming sharp or overwhelming.

◐ Geschmack

Entry brings a gentle sweetness from the malt backbone, which provides body and balance before the bitterness unfolds. The mid-palate develops a measured hop bitterness around 60 IBU—firm but not aggressive—allowing the changing hop lineup to express character without dominating. The finish is dry and slightly resinous, with a lingering citrus note.

◑ Abgang

Medium finish with a clean, dry aftertaste and fading hop bitterness. No harsh edges or lingering astringency; the beer drinks refreshingly and invites another sip.

Gut gekühlt servieren. Session IPAs sind am besten kalt — der niedrigere Alkohol bedeutet weniger Wärme zur Balance der Hopfen.

Die geschwungene Form konzentriert Hopfenaromen und hält den Schaum. Unverzichtbar für aromatische Ales und IPAs, bei denen die Nase die halbe Erfahrung ist.
