English IPA 6.66 º 66 IBU

Engelbertus

Engelbertus Hartendief is a spirited English IPA that balances its punchy 6.66% ABV with deep-rooted British sensory character. The profile opens with a moderate bouquet of floral, spicy-peppery, and orange-zest hop notes, underpinned by a foundational bready and biscuity malt presence typical of traditional pale ale malt. This medium-bodied ale presents a clear, deep golden to amber hue topped with a persistent off-white head. On the palate, an assertive but refined hop bitterness takes center stage, supported by subtle notes of toasted bread and faint caramel. The finish is notably dry and crisp, with a lingering bitterness and a smooth, well-integrated alcohol warmth.
