Afromestizo Doña Amalia
Afromestizo Do!a Amalia is a vibrant American Pale Ale that captures the essence of the Pacific coast through a precise balance of traditional and wild elements. An intentional foundation of caramel malt provides a soft, toasted sweetness that acts as the perfect canvas for the assertive bitterness derived from three distinct hop varieties. A dedicated dry-hopping process yields a bright, floral aroma that emerges immediately upon pouring, complemented by herbal "jungle tones" that add a layer of rustic complexity. This ale emphasizes clarity and a refreshing character, offering a clean, hop-forward profile that honors its historical inspiration.
Appearance. Deep gold to light amber in color with brilliant clarity. It pours with a moderately large, off-white head that shows good retention and leaves fine lacing as it recedes.
Aroma. Moderate to high hop intensity featuring prominent floral notes from dry-hopping, alongside spicy and resinous herbal undertones. A low to moderate malt presence supports the hops with scents of toasted bread and a hint of sweet caramel.
Taste. The initial impression is a balanced mix of bready malt and caramel sweetness, followed quickly by a firm, wild hop bitterness. The hop flavors mirror the aroma with floral and earthy characteristics. It features a clean fermentation profile and a medium-dry finish where a pleasant, non-harsh bitterness lingers momentarily.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate to high carbonation that enhances the beer's refreshing quality. It feels smooth on the palate with no astringency and a very low, well-integrated alcohol presence.
