Magic Road

American Boy by Magic Road is a vibrant take on the classic German Pils, showcasing the expressive citrus character of Citra hops. It presents as a brilliant straw-gold liquid topped with a persistent, creamy white foam. The sensory profile is led by prominent aromas of grapefruit zest and lime skin, balanced by a clean, crackery malt base. The palate begins with a subtle doughy sweetness that is swiftly cut by a firm, crisp bitterness. High carbonation and a dry, minerally finish emphasize its refreshing nature, leaving a clean, citrusy trail that invites another sip.

Appearance. Straw to light gold (approx. 3 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a dense, creamy white head that exhibits excellent retention and fine lacing.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Bright citrus notes of grapefruit and lime from Citra hops dominate, backed by a subtle herbal undertone. Low grainy-sweet malt character reminiscent of fresh crackers or dough. Exceptionally clean lager fermentation profile.

Taste. Initial light grainy malt sweetness quickly transitions to a firm, clean hop bitterness. Hop flavors follow the aroma with prominent citrus zest and a touch of tropical fruit. High attenuation leads to a dry, crisp finish with a lingering, pleasant bitterness and a hint of flinty minerality.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a crisp, refreshing texture. High carbonation provides a lively prickle on the tongue. No perceptible alcohol warmth. Smooth, without any astringency.
