Side Project Brewing Pali Session IPA
Session IPA with HBC 1019, Citra, and Idaho 7 Hops
Pali is a hop-forward Session IPA built around a modern blend of HBC 1019, Citra, and Idaho 7, delivering substantial aroma intensity and flavor while maintaining a modest 4.7% ABV. HBC 1019 provides distinctive notes of peach, orange, tropical fruit, and subtle coconut cream, complemented by Citra's vibrant citrus profile and Idaho 7's blend of pine, tangerine, and stone fruit character. The result is a balanced, low-gravity IPA with expressive hop saturation, restrained bitterness, and a clean, dry finish that highlights the nuanced interplay between experimental and established hop varieties.
