IPA Other 4.5 º 45 IBU

Brouwerij Kees

This session-strength American IPA is a vibrant tropical collaboration between Brouwerij Kees and Dutch Bargain. Sabro hops lead the sensory experience, delivering distinctive cream-of-coconut and ripe pineapple notes, while Sorachi Ace provides a bright, citrus-fresh contrast of lemon zest and subtle herbal lemongrass. Despite its modest 4.5% ABV, it maintains an assertive hop profile. The "Cold IPA" influence ensures a bone-dry, crispy finish with a lean malt backbone that highlights the exotic fruit character. It is exceptionally refreshing, balancing intense tropical fruitiness with a clean, snappy bitterness that invites another sip.

Appearance. Pale gold (approx. 6 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Features a medium-sized, persistent white head with fine-textured lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent toasted coconut and tropical stone fruit from Sabro. This is layered with bright lemon peel, lime, and a hint of herbal lemongrass attributed to Sorachi Ace. Low, clean, grainy-sweet maltiness in the background with no esters.

Taste. Sharp, hop-forward entry with flavors of fresh coconut, lime, and citrus zest. A moderate to high bitterness provides structure without being harsh. Very low grainy malt support. Fermentation is extremely clean, leading to a bone-dry, crisp finish and a lingering tropical, zesty aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, crispy texture. High carbonation enhances the refreshing, effervescent quality. No alcohol warmth or astringency.
