The Book IPA is an incredibly interesting beer launch by COEDO Brewery. This limited-edition offering was the result of the Japanese brewery's participation in [VALUE BOOKS](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-robinsons-fruit-creations) ' 17th-anniversary event — 'Just a Little Share' — last year.

Book IPA boasts a refreshing aromatic experience that combines herbs and citrus to delight the senses. Its flavor profile is [less bitter than traditional IPAs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chouffe-ipa), making it more accessible to a wider audience. COEDO Brewery shares that it created this beer as a companion for reading and relaxing.

The collaboration will certainly capture the attention of beer and book enthusiasts alike as it presents a unique manner of merging two seemingly unrelated categories. In addition to the interesting profile of the Book IPA, the beer is also offered with an [aesthetically pleasing and eye-catching label](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/core-legends).
