American Pale Ale 5.1 º 20 IBU

Magdalena

Magdalena La Palida captures the spirit of the American craft revolution, presenting a bright, inviting take on the classic American Pale Ale. Pouring a vibrant golden-amber, this beer offers a balanced sensory journey defined by refreshing citrus and soft tropical fruit notes. The hop-forward profile is gracefully anchored by a subtle undercurrent of toasted grain and light caramel sweetness, ensuring a drinkable yet flavorful experience. At 5.1% ABV, it strikes an approachable harmony between its moderate bitterness and a clean, supportive malt backbone, finishing with a crisp, lingering brightness that highlights its fruity character and classic American hop heritage.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale amber with excellent clarity. Topped by a moderately large, creamy off-white head that demonstrates good retention and leaves light lacing on the glass.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring dominant notes of orange peel, grapefruit, and subtle stone fruit. A light, supportive malt presence provides hints of toasted bread and a touch of sweet caramel in the background.

Taste. Initial citrus hop flavors of lemon and grapefruit lead into a moderate bitterness. The mid-palate reveals a light caramel sweetness that balances the hop-forward character without becoming heavy. Finishes medium-dry with a clean, lingering hop resin and citrus aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, well-rounded texture. Moderate carbonation provides a refreshing prickle on the tongue, while the 5.1% alcohol remains well-integrated with no perceptible warmth.
