Hooper's

Hooper's Dandelion & Burdock is an effervescent and nostalgic Fruit Beer that draws on the heritage of traditional fermented botanical recipes. This sparkling brew presents a unique sensory profile defined by the earthy, herbal depths of burdock thistle roots and the delicate floral sweetness of dandelion. The palate is characterized by a burst of dark fruitiness that seamlessly transitions into distinctive tones of aniseed, reminiscent of classic British soda. At 4% ABV, it maintains a refreshing, light character, concluding with a subtle spicy finish that balances the initial botanical sweetness without overstaying its welcome on the tongue.

Appearance. Deep ruby to dark mahogany (SRM 25-35); brilliant clarity with high effervescence. Forms a thin, off-white head with moderate retention and light, fleeting lacing.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Dominant aromatic notes of spicy aniseed and earthy, root-like burdock character. Subtle floral honey-like sweetness from the dandelion infusion. Malt aroma is very low and neutral; no perceptible hop aroma or yeast esters.

Taste. Sweet and fruit-forward initial impression. The flavor profile is dominated by the herbal complexity of dandelion and the deep, woody notes of burdock thistle. Prominent aniseed and licorice-like flavors provide the primary character. Very low hop bitterness, with the balance driven by botanical spice and residual sweetness. Finishes clean with a lingering, subtle spicy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Light body with very high, sparkling carbonation that creates a crisp, prickly sensation on the palate. No alcohol warmth. Smooth texture with zero astringency.
