This Mexican-style American Lager presents a bright, thirst-quenching profile designed for refreshment. It opens with an immediate, zesty citrus lift from the lime, which beautifully complements the clean, grainy-sweet character of the pale malt base. The addition of sea salt enhances the palate, providing a subtle mineral snap that sharpens the crisp, low-bitterness finish. Light and highly effervescent, the beer remains exceptionally clean, driven by a neutral lager fermentation. The lime provides a fresh, aromatic punch while the salt rounds out the mouthfeel without becoming overtly saline, creating a summery and highly sessionable interpretation of the classic American Lager style.
Appearance.Very pale straw to light yellow (2-3 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a white, frothy head that shows moderate to low persistence and light lacing.
Aroma.Moderate-low intensity featuring bright, fresh lime zest as the primary note. Beneath the citrus lies a subtle, grainy-sweet malt aroma with very low floral hop presence. Clean fermentation profile with no yeast-derived esters or phenols.
Taste.Initial impression is crisp and zesty. Low grainy malt sweetness is quickly balanced by a tart lime flavor. Hop bitterness is low, allowing a faint mineral salinity from the sea salt to emerge in the mid-palate. The finish is very dry, clean, and refreshing with a lingering citrus snap.
Mouthfeel.Light body with high carbonation providing a lively, scrubbing carbonic bite. No alcohol warmth. Smooth mouthfeel with a slight mineral crispness from the salt and no perceived astringency.
