La Cibeles Naranja
Saison 4.9 º
This refreshing Saison offers a bright, citrus-forward profile, driven by the purposeful inclusion of orange peel during the brewing process. The citrus notes partially replace traditional hop bitterness with a pithy, zesty edge that melds seamlessly with the characteristic spicy and fruity yeast esters. Expect a rustic, grainy malt backbone that provides a clean stage for the orange to shine without veering into sweet fruit territory. Highly effervescent and exceptionally well-attenuated, it delivers a bone-dry, peppery finish typical of the style. The result is a balanced, artisanal ale where the botanical citrus enhances the classic farmhouse character, making for a crisp and exceptionally drinkable experience.
Appearance. Pale orange to golden (SRM 6-8); dense, rocky white head with excellent retention and Belgian lacing; slightly hazy due to being unfiltered.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity featuring prominent zesty orange peel and pithy citrus; balanced by spicy phenols akin to black pepper and floral, earthy hop notes; low grainy-sweet malt character.
Taste. Initial impression is crisp and dry with a soft, grainy malt palate; moderate bitterness is derived from a combination of Continental hops and orange pith; yeast-driven flavors of black pepper and light pome fruit; citrus zest remains integrated and refreshing through to a very dry, slightly spicy finish.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with very high, effervescent carbonation; crisp and refreshing with no alcohol warmth; very low astringency from the citrus peel.
