Lil’ Twist Grapefruit IPA

For a long time, grapefruit had a bad reputation The sour citrus fruit is bitter, a little tart and nobody knew what to do with it Grapefruit was associated with diets and children feared the very healthy but unusual tasting juice of the fruit Today, the image has changed: Grapefruit is celebrated for its high vitamin content, hipsters eat it for breakfast and there are countless recipes that elicit the grapefruit's delicate flavor

Brewers have also discovered the citrus fruit for themselves With its tartness, fruity acidity and elegant bitterness, grapefruit fits perfectly into the flavor palette of beer and brings freshness and a touch of exoticism into play The Irish brewery Rye River Brewing has come up with a delicious beer with the spherical fruit: Lil' Twist is Rye River's interpretation of a grapefruit IPA and is absolutely delicious

The drinkable IPA flows into the glass in a bright straw yellow and smells of freshly harvested green hop cones and the juice of freshly squeezed pink grapefruit The taste follows the olfactory first impression on the foot and refreshes the palate with juicy notes of various citrus fruits The aroma of pink grapefruit is the most dominant and harmonizes wonderfully with the clear hop notes With a gentle 3.8% alcohol content, Lil' Twist is the perfect refreshment for in between meals
