This Fruit Beer, crafted as a traditional Radler, presents a bright and refreshing profile derived from a light lager base blended with citrus. The bouquet features a prominent lemon character that oscillates between zesty acidity and subtle sweetness, designed to lift the underlying floral hop notes. Despite its very low alcohol content, it maintains a smooth, creamy texture on the palate. The experience is defined by a clean, lingering finish where the lemon zest harmonizes with a mild malt sweetness and a whisper of hop bitterness, making it an exceptionally approachable and thirst-quenching interpretation of a classic Shandy.
Appearance.Luminous straw-gold with brilliant clarity (SRM 2-3). Pours with a moderate white head that exhibits fair retention and light lacing.
Aroma.Moderate to high intensity of fresh lemon zest and citrus juice. Supporting the fruit is a light, grainy malt sweetness and a subtle, floral hop aroma. Clean fermentation profile.
Taste.The initial impression is a refreshing burst of lemon, balancing tart acidity with a mild sugary sweetness. A delicate, crackery malt base emerges mid-palate, complemented by a low but noticeable hop bitterness. The finish is clean and refreshing, with a lingering aftertaste of citrus and soft grain.
Mouthfeel.Light-bodied and crisp with moderate-high carbonation. Displays a surprisingly smooth, creamy texture on the palate for its low gravity; no alcohol warmth or astringency.
