Big on juicy hop character.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eTiny is Larkin's answer to those occasions when you want the bright, expressive character of a modern IPA without committing to the weight and strength that often comes with it. This Session IPA keeps things light, approachable and refreshingly easy to drink, while still delivering the juicy hop personality that has become such a defining part of contemporary Irish craft beer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is something particularly satisfying about a beer that understands its role. Tiny is not trying to be a Double IPA squeezed into a smaller ABV; instead, it embraces the sessionable side of the style. The body stays light, the finish remains fresh, and the hops provide enough fruit and aroma to make every sip feel properly rewarding. It is the kind of beer that works just as well for a relaxed afternoon as it does when the evening stretches on a little longer than planned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, Tiny pours a bright golden colour with a lively white head. The aroma is fresh and hop-led, bringing juicy citrus and tropical fruit alongside softer notes of ripe stone fruit. On the palate, the beer is light and crisp, with a gentle malt base providing structure without getting in the way of the hops. The fruit character stays at the centre, while a restrained bitterness gives the beer definition and keeps the finish clean and refreshing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat balance is what makes a good Session IPA so appealing. Reducing the alcohol can easily mean reducing the flavour too, but Tiny keeps enough hop expression to remain unmistakably an IPA. The lighter body makes it highly drinkable, while the juicy fruit character stops it from feeling thin or forgettable. It is approachable without being bland and hoppy without becoming intense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone exploring the lighter side of Irish craft beer, Tiny makes a particularly easy place to start. It has the familiar citrus and tropical character expected from a modern IPA, but in a format that feels relaxed and uncomplicated. It is equally suited to seasoned craft beer drinkers looking for something more sessionable and those who simply want a refreshing beer with a little more personality than a standard lager.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike Maverick, Tiny shows Larkin's ability to make hop-forward beer feel approachable. Where Maverick brings a fuller, juicier East Coast IPA experience, Tiny pares things back and focuses on freshness, drinkability and balance. Sometimes a smaller beer is exactly what is needed — and Tiny makes a very convincing case for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy we love it:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eTiny keeps the juicy, modern IPA character while making everything lighter and easier to drink. Fresh hop flavour, a crisp body and restrained bitterness give it plenty of personality without any unnecessary heaviness. A very handy beer to have in the fridge when one IPA is simply not enough.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Larkin's Brewing Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54634564452698,"sku":"5391536051532","price":3.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/1745\/4426\/files\/Larkin_s_Tiny_Session_IPA.webp?v=1789596974","url":"https:\/\/vpmerchants.com\/products\/larkins-tiny-session-ipa","provider":"VP Merchants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
