Cotoya Idaeus
Fruit Beer 6.4 º
This Fruit Beer showcases a vibrant sensory profile driven by a two-month maturation on organic raspberries from the Vega del Trubia. The nose is dominated by the bright, jammy essence of Rubus idaeus, offering an intense bouquet of fresh-picked berries and a hint of floral sweetness. On the palate, the raspberry character is assertive but balanced, providing a crisp tartness that cuts through a soft, bready malt backbone. The lengthy maturation ensures a deep integration of fruit, resulting in a refreshing, dry finish where the natural acidity of the berries lingers alongside a clean, understated hop presence.
Appearance. Presents a pale amber to distinct reddish-pink hue with a slight haze from the fruit addition. Topped by a persistent, pale pink-tinted head with fine lacing.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Dominated by authentic, fresh raspberry aroma with a subtle floral note. A low, neutral grainy-sweet malt character supports the fruit, while hop aroma remains very low to avoid clashing with the berry profile.
Taste. The initial impression is a burst of tart raspberry flavor. The fruit is well-integrated with a light, bready malt foundation. Bitterness is low, serving only to balance the malt. The fermentation of fruit sugars results in a dry, clean finish with a lingering, natural berry acidity and no cloying sweetness.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a slightly crisp edge. Moderate to high carbonation enhances the perception of fruit freshness. Very light alcohol warmth is well-integrated at 6.4%, and a faint tannic depth from the fruit skins adds structure without astringency.
