Braukollektiv Ziggy #24
Pale Ale 5.9 º
Ziggy #24 presents a vibrant expression of the American Pale Ale, showcasing the experimental YCH 383 Trial Blend hops against a clean, supportive malt backdrop. The sensory profile is defined by a bouquet of tropical fruit, soft stone fruit, and bright citrus zest, underpinned by a low, bready malt sweetness. On the palate, a firm but smooth bitterness balances a grainy malt core, leading to a crisp, dry finish. This medium-bodied ale exemplifies the style’s versatility, utilizing the unique nuances of the trial hops to deliver a refreshing, hop-forward experience with a clean fermentation profile and lingering notes of resinous pine.
Appearance. Deep gold to pale amber (SRM 7); brilliant clarity with a moderately large, off-white, persistent head that leaves fine lacing.
Aroma. Moderately high hop intensity featuring tropical mango, ripe peach, and grapefruit zest from the YCH 383 Trial Blend; supported by low, neutral grainy malt and a hint of toasted bread; clean fermentation without significant esters.
Taste. Initial impression is hop-forward with citrus and stone fruit flavors; moderate-high bitterness provides a firm structure; malt character is bready and supportive without being sweet; finish is medium-dry and clean with a lingering, resinous hop aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with moderate carbonation; smooth texture across the palate with a very light alcohol warmth consistent with its strength; no astringency.
