The Raï Session IPA is a murky, high hopped, easy drinking 3.5% Session IPA! Following the Tropikalia IPA's psychedelic Samba musical path, this beer is named in honour of the largest winter breeding ground of storks in North Africa: Eastern Algeria where Raï is a form of Algerian folk music dating back to the 1920s and by chance Рай means 'Heaven' In Bulgarian.

Borefts IX. Day 2. Keg. Light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, fairly dry and has decent fine carbonation. Thin malts, not sweet. Light dry floralness. Mild citrus. Thin dry finish. Just about passable.

Bottle at Nosferatu / Sofia. Pours mostly clear gold, effervescent, with plenty of sediment, and a tight, creamy white head. The aroma holds citrus rind, pine needles, dry pale malts. Light sweet flavour with with notes of peach, melon, mild bitter lemon rind, more crispy pale malts. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Nicley balanced finish, more nips of peach, tangerine, melon, relaxed bitterness. Very drinkable SIPA.
