Sometimes we need a little light at the end of the tunnel, which is what everyday stress, appointments, agenda items, and the mountain of housework, laundry, and shopping sometimes feel like. When we're drowning in chaos, when everything is getting on top of us and we're simply overwhelmed, we set ourselves a bright spot at the end of the day – an oasis we're working toward, getting closer to with every tick on the to-do list. This could be a date with friends, an ice cream after work, a pizza delivery, a dip in the lake, or simply a particularly good beer waiting for us in the fridge.

Siren Craft Brew from England delivers just the right drink for such occasions: Lumina is a brilliant delight with a velvety mouthfeel and a soul-soothing aroma. The smooth texture of this Session IPA is thanks to a trio of malt and oat flakes, while the fruity flavor is provided by the hop varieties Azacca, Chinook, Hallertauer Blanc, Mosaic, and Simcoe.

Lumina flows into the glass in a rich egg-yolk yellow, crowned with a peak of airy ivory foam. A tropical aroma opens the beer festively, followed by notes of mango, pineapple, and freshly grated lemon zest. A refreshing bitterness balances the fruity tide, making Lumina the perfect sip after a long day.
