L’Indice UV is a vibrant Wild Specialty Beer designed for peak refreshment. It leads with an assertive lactic acidity that defines its crisp, summer-ready character. The sensory profile is dominated by zesty lemon peel and a medley of tropical fruit esters—reminiscent of pineapple and passion fruit—likely derived from a complex wild fermentation. The base is a clean, pale blond ale that provides a subtle crackery malt backdrop without competing with the sharp sourness. Its high attenuation results in a bone-dry finish, allowing the bright citrus notes to pop while maintaining a light, effervescent, and highly drinkable structure that cleanses the palate.
Appearance.Pale straw to light gold (SRM 2-4) with a slight, characteristic haze. Pours with a white, frothy head that shows moderate retention, eventually receding to a thin collar due to high acidity.
Aroma.High intensity aromatics featuring sharp lactic tartness and bright lemon zest. Pronounced tropical fruit esters suggest pineapple and mango. Malt aroma is very low and neutral, resembling fresh cracker, while hop aroma is absent.
Taste.The initial impression is a sharp, clean lactic sourness. Dominant flavors of tart lemon and tropical fruit-like esters are supported by a very low, bready malt presence. Hop bitterness is nearly imperceptible, as the high acidity provides the balance. The finish is bone-dry and crisp with a lingering, refreshing tartness and no harshness.
Mouthfeel.Light-bodied with a crisp, prickly carbonation that enhances the perceived acidity. Alcohol warmth is very low and well-integrated. No astringency is present, though the high acidity creates a mouth-watering sensation.
