Grulla: The Soft and Balanced White IPA

Grulla is a very soft White IPA characterized by the great balance that regulates the distinct but never excessive bitter component with the velvety feel of the wheat, used for almost a third of the total grains.

Three aroma hops come together to give you the soft strength of ripe tropical fruit, accompanied from a distance by citrus and resinous notes. A unique drinking experience that combines the freshness of a Witbier with the hopping of an IPA.

Technical Characteristics

Style: White IPA
Alcohol content: 5.5% ABV
IBU: 45 (medium bitterness)
Format: 33cl
Color: Hazy straw yellow

Produced with wheat for almost a third of the total grains, Grulla combines the velvety texture typical of Witbiers with the intense hopping of IPAs. Three selected aroma hops provide aromatic complexity without exceeding in bitterness.

Tasting Notes

In appearance, Grulla presents itself as hazy straw yellow, naturally cloudy due to the wheat and unfiltered. The foam is white, compact, and persistent.

On the nose, the soft strength of ripe tropical fruit emerges: mango, pineapple, passion fruit, and lychee intertwine with citrus notes (grapefruit, orange) and resinous hints of pine. The aromatic profile is complex yet harmonious.

On the palate, the velvety feel of the wheat is immediately noticeable: the texture is soft and enveloping, with a medium carbonation that balances perfectly. The taste recalls the tropical notes from the nose, with a distinct but never excessive bitterness that cleanses the palate without ever being aggressive.

The great balance is the true strength of Grulla: every element is in the right place, creating a harmonious and satisfying drinking experience.

White IPA: The Best of Two Worlds

White IPAs are hybrid beers that combine the soft and velvety texture of Belgian Witbiers (thanks to the massive use of wheat) with the intense hopping of American IPAs. The result is a complex, balanced, and incredibly drinkable beer.

Grulla represents the perfect interpretation of this style: soft, hoppy, balanced, and awarded for its quality.
