Franklin is a vibrant American Pale Ale designed for high drinkability and seasonal refreshment. At its core, a potent combination of Citra, Mosaic, and Simcoe hops drives a bright sensory profile rich with tropical mango, citrus zest, and a subtle resinous pine undertone. These hops are supported by a clean, lean malt backbone that provides just enough biscuit and grainy sweetness to balance the firm bitterness. Despite its sessionable strength, the beer retains the classic character of the style, offering a crisp, refreshing finish with lingering notes of grapefruit and berry. It is an approachable, hop-forward ale that highlights modern hop complexity.
Appearance.Pale golden (approx. 6 SRM) with a moderately large, frothy white head that exhibits good retention and lacing. Clarity is brilliant to clear.
Aroma.Moderately high hop aroma featuring prominent notes of tropical fruit, grapefruit, and pine from the Citra, Mosaic, and Simcoe. Low neutral to grainy maltiness supports the hop presentation. Fermentation is clean with very low fruity esters.
Taste.The initial impression is hop-forward, displaying flavors of tangerine, passion fruit, and a touch of earthiness. Low bready and grainy malt flavors provide a supportive base. Bitterness is moderate, balancing the light malt sweetness. The finish is dry and clean with a lingering citrus and resinous aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with moderate to high carbonation, creating a crisp and lively sensation. The finish is smooth and refreshing without any astringency or alcohol warmth.
