Payload from Beyond Belief Brewing Co. reimagines the Ordinary Bitter through a unique sensory lens, incorporating recycled fresh pasta to enhance its bready, biscuity malt foundation. While traditionally a low-gravity session ale, this iteration presents a modern, hop-forward profile, leaning into distinct stone fruit notes of peach and apricot that mingle with a floral and earthy hop character. The pasta adjunct contributes a soft, cereal-like smoothness, supporting a firm bitterness that remains the hallmark of the style. The result is an exceptionally easy-drinking ale that balances traditional British malt complexity with a bright, fruity hop presence and a clean, dry finish.
Appearance.Pale amber to light copper (approximately 10 SRM). Displays good clarity with a low to moderate off-white head that leaves light lacing on the glass.
Aroma.Moderate intensity featuring a blend of stone fruit hop notes, specifically apricot and peach, alongside earthy and floral undertones. The malt character is bready and biscuity, with a subtle, clean cereal-like quality attributed to the pasta adjunct. Low to moderate fruity esters are present.
Taste.Initial impression is a crisp, medium-high bitterness balanced by a bready and biscuity malt backbone. Hop flavors of stone fruit and dried herbs are prominent. The pasta addition lends a slight wheaty or floury grain flavor. The balance is decidedly bitter, leading to a dry, clean finish with a lingering earthy aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with moderate carbonation. The pasta adjunct provides a slight, smooth creaminess without adding weight. Alcohol warmth is very low, and there is no perceived astringency.
