Big Tackle is a vibrant interpretation of an Ordinary Bitter, distinguished by the punchy addition of Citra hops. This sessionable ale presents a modern twist on the classic British profile, leading with an aromatic 'drop kick' of citrus zest, grapefruit, and lime. The sensory experience is anchored by a traditional malt foundation, offering subtle notes of biscuit and toasted bread. Highly drinkable and refreshing, it balances a firm hop bitterness with the bright, fruity characteristics of the Citra variety, resulting in a crisp, dry finish that invites another sip while remaining true to its low-gravity heritage.
Appearance.Pale amber to light copper (8–14 SRM). Brilliant clarity. Low to moderate off-white head with fair retention and light lacing.
Aroma.Moderate intensity with a dominant citrus hop character featuring grapefruit and lime from the Citra hops. Low bready and biscuity malt notes provide a supportive base, accompanied by low fruity esters.
Taste.Medium to moderately high bitterness that defines the balance. Initial hop flavors of citrus and melon transition into a low, biscuity malt character. The finish is notably dry and clean, with a lingering earthy and citrusy hop aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Light to medium-light body with moderate carbonation. Smooth texture with no astringency and zero alcohol warmth.
