Glide is a refreshing American Pale Ale that punches above its sessionable weight with a vibrant hop profile. The addition of Comet hops in the kettle provides a bright foundation of citrus and tropical fruit notes, while a generous dry-hop addition of Chinook imparts a classic resinous depth. The sensory experience is defined by bursts of grapefruit zest and subtle pineapple, underpinned by a lean, bready malt backbone. It finishes remarkably clean and dry with a lingering piney bitterness that invites another sip. Despite its light presence, the aromatic intensity and balanced structure deliver a quintessential hop-forward character.
Appearance.Pale golden (5-6 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Pours with a moderately large, frothy white head that exhibits good retention and leaves delicate lacing on the glass.
Aroma.Moderate-high intensity featuring prominent notes of grapefruit, lemon zest, and hints of tropical pineapple. A distinct layer of resinous pine and spicy evergreen follows. The malt character is subtle, offering low-intensity aromas of fresh white bread and cracked grain. Clean fermentation profile.
Taste.The palate is led by bright citrus peel and tropical fruit flavors, transitioning into a firm, piney hop bitterness. Low malt flavors of toasted crackers and bread dough provide a supportive but lean base. Bitterness is moderate and assertive, balancing the light malt sweetness. The finish is notably dry and clean, with a lingering aftertaste of resinous pine and citrus pith.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a crisp, refreshing texture. Carbonation is moderate-high, providing a lively prickle on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is absent, and the mouthfeel is smooth without any detectable astringency or harshness.
