Dig Brew Co Reality Tour
English Pale Ale 5 º
Reality Tour is a sessionable Ordinary Bitter that bridges traditional British structure with modern hop character. It presents a foundation of bready and biscuity malts typical of the style, balanced by a firm bitterness. The spotlight is on the Olicana hops, a UK experimental variety that imparts distinct notes of tropical fruit and grapefruit, layering a contemporary edge over a classic fruity ester profile. Despite a slightly higher strength for the category at 5% ABV, it maintains the requisite dry finish and high drinkability of a traditional bitter. This beer offers a clean, uncomplicated sensory experience where toasted malt and expressive hops coexist in a balanced, refreshing harmony.
Appearance. Pale amber to light copper in color with brilliant clarity. It produces a low to moderate off-white head with fair retention and light lacing.
Aroma. Moderate malt intensity featuring bready and lightly toasty notes with a subtle caramel quality. The Olicana hops contribute a distinctive fruity character of grapefruit and subtle tropical notes. Mild pear-like fruity esters are present, and the profile is clean with no diacetyl.
Taste. Initial bready and biscuity malt flavors are quickly countered by a medium-high hop bitterness. The flavor profile is driven by Olicana hops, offering floral and citrus fruit qualities. The balance is decidedly bitter, leading into a dry, clean finish with a lingering toasted grain aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate carbonation. The palate is smooth and refreshing with no detectable astringency and a very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth.
