Gold color. Fruity, herbal aromas and flavors of grilled pineapple and mangos, herbs, and flatbreads with a supple, vibrant, finely carbonated, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a tingling, medium-length finish with notes of grilled root vegetables and leeks, pepper, cannabis, and oatmeal cookie. An easygoing IPA for burgers and brats.

About

Session IPA

Session IPA's are lower alcohol, "sessionable" beers with a similar flavor profile and style as American style IPAs. They are deep gold to amber in color and usually fall below 5% in alcohol unlike their boozier counterparts, American style IPAs. They are characterized by floral and citrus hop aromas and a distinctive hop bitterness on the finish.
