Recipe

Dry NA IPA Check

IPA Beer glass Easy

A simple tasting flow for judging whether an NA IPA has aroma, bitterness, and a dry finish.

Ingredients

Use the bottle style, not only the brand name, when you substitute.

  • 1 chilled NA IPA
  • Clean glass
  • Optional lemon peel for aroma check

Method

Small technique choices matter more when there is no alcohol carrying the drink.

1 Pour into a clean glass
2 Smell for hop aroma before tasting
3 Take one sip warm enough to read bitterness
4 Check whether the finish stays dry.

Finish: None
