The hop:
US Citrus hops impart tropical and citrus fruit notes and flavours. The generous hop additions perfectly play off a crisp malt backbone, resulting in a sessionable beer that’s still bold enough to satisfy any hop lover’s taste buds.
The look:

The smell:
Fruit and piney hops present on the nose, this gives way to an intense hop aroma drawing in the senses. The light malt background provides a warming balance.
The taste:
A crisp biscuit malt flavour provides a good base for US Citrus hops, which come through rather dry. The body is medium with a hoppy character that lasts due to the dry-hopping and leads the way to refreshing citrus flavours.
The menu combo:
This light bodied beer is the perfect accompaniment for appetizers, so great to start a dinner party with before graduating to heavier brews. ‘Opsession is also great to match with light chicken or fish dishes, and mild Indian curries. This refreshing IPA works well with smoked cheddars and mild blue cheeses.
