GROSS Aterki

The GROSS Aterki 44cl is a modern take on the classic West Coast IPA, designed for those seeking aromatic intensity without aggressive bitterness.

Character, Flavor, Aromas

The nose features intense aromas of mango, passion fruit, grapefruit, orange peel, and a fresh herbal background. The palate is light and clean, with a medium-low body and refreshing carbonation. The finish is fluid and dry, with the retronasal aroma taking center stage. Bitterness appears in a restrained and elegant way, providing structure without dominating the overall experience.

Food Pairing

GROSS Aterki pairs especially well with dishes where the freshness of the hops and the citrus profile can complement fats, spices, or toasted flavors. It goes particularly well with gourmet burgers, pizzas with intense toppings like pepperoni or roasted vegetables, chicken or fish tacos, and Asian-inspired dishes with a spicy or zesty kick.

Ideal for those looking for an aromatic, fresh, and easy-drinking IPA, with all the character of hops but without excessive bitterness.
