American Pale Ale 5 º

New Park Brewing

Foliation is a vibrant American Pale Ale that masterfully blends a crisp base of pilsner malt and flaked wheat with an expressive selection of American and New Zealand hops. The sensory experience is defined by a punchy, tropical-forward character, leading with bright aromatics of lime zest and succulent papaya. A unique undercurrent of wild blackberry adds complexity to the hop profile. Despite its heavy hopping, the beer remains exceptionally easy-drinking with a clean, supportive malt backbone and a refreshing finish. It exemplifies a modern, hop-centric approach to the style, balancing moderate bitterness with high-intensity fruit character.

Appearance. Pale straw to light gold (5-7 SRM) with a slight haze from the flaked wheat. Topped with a moderately large, frothy white head that shows good persistence and light lacing.

Aroma. High hop intensity featuring a complex bouquet of fresh lime zest, ripe papaya, and subtle blackberry. A low, clean, grainy malt aroma from the pilsner malt provides a neutral background for the hops. Fermentation is clean with no significant yeast esters.

Taste. The palate follows the aroma with immediate flavors of tart lime zest and tropical papaya. Moderate hop bitterness is well-integrated, supported by a lean, bready malt presence. A late-palate hint of blackberry emerges before transitioning into a dry, crisp finish with lingering hop fruitiness and a clean aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, soft texture enhanced by the flaked wheat. Moderate to high carbonation provides a refreshing, prickly sensation. No alcohol warmth or astringency is present.
