Beer Profile

basil IPA

This IPA presents a unique aromatic profile where fresh basil takes center stage over traditional hop scents. A blend of lemon, sweet, and tulsi basil imparts bright, herbal notes that intertwine with the subtle bitterness typical of the style. The honey adds a gentle sweetness that balances the lively herbaceous character, while the malt backbone provides a smooth, medium-bodied mouthfeel. At 6.7% ABV, this beer delivers a refreshing complexity with a crisp finish, offering both immediate vibrancy and the capacity to develop nuances with age. Its green-tinged aroma and clean bitterness make for an intriguing twist on a classic IPA.
