Forastera Mallorca Pale Ale
This American Pale Ale captures the diverse landscape of Mallorca, balancing a firm malt foundation with an eclectic hop profile. A bright sensory journey leads with aromas of sun-drenched citrus and resinous pine, reminiscent of the Tramuntana mountains. The palate features a supportive bready malt character with a touch of biscuit and a subtle hint of caramel sweetness, providing a sturdy body without being heavy. A festive, moderate bitterness persists through the finish, echoing the crispness of the Balearic coast. Balanced and highly drinkable, it showcases a clean fermentation profile where vibrant hop flavors remain the primary focus against a smooth, rounded mouthfeel.
Appearance. Deep golden to pale amber in color with brilliant clarity. It supports a moderately large, creamy off-white head with good retention and light lacing.
Aroma. Moderate to high hop aroma characterized by notes of citrus peel, floral blossoms, and resinous pine. A low to moderate neutral grainy maltiness supports the hops, featuring light toasted bread and a faint hint of caramel.
Taste. The flavor leads with a balanced mix of citrusy and piney hop notes. A supportive malt presence offers flavors of bread and light caramel sweetness that remains restrained. Bitterness is moderate and festive, providing a clean counterpoint to the malt. The finish is medium-dry and clean, with a lingering, pleasant hop character.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with moderate to high carbonation. The texture is smooth and well-rounded, lacking any harshness or astringency, with a very subtle alcohol presence that is well-integrated.
