Otherside Brewing Co. Festive
This Australian Sparkling Ale presents a refined balance between traditional heritage and modern festival appeal. It offers a supple, malty foundation characterized by grainy and bready notes, while veering into contemporary territory with distinctive tropical citrus highlights. The yeast character provides signature pome fruit esters of apple and pear, typical of the style. Highly carbonated and refreshing, the beer maintains a medium body that feels substantial yet sessionable at 4.2% ABV. A rising bitterness mid-palate transitions into a crisp, dry finish, making it an eminently drinkable choice for warm climates and long gatherings.
Appearance. Deep yellow to medium gold in color (5-7 SRM). Topped by a tall, frothy, and persistent white head with fine bubbles. Shows noticeable effervescence and a characteristic haze from yeast suspension, typical of the style when served fresh.
Aroma. Moderate intensity with a balanced profile of pear and apple esters alongside a unique tropical citrus hop character. Malt presents as clean, grainy, and lightly bready with no caramel. A very faint, clean yeast-derived sulfur note may be present, enhancing the freshness.
Taste. Initial impression is of soft, grainy malt sweetness that is quickly overtaken by a medium-high hop bitterness. Flavors of tropical fruit and citrus complement the traditional earthy and herbal hop notes. The fermentation profile adds complexity with pome fruit esters. It concludes with a very dry, crisp, and highly attenuated finish with a lingering, clean bitterness.
Mouthfeel. Medium-bodied with a supple, mouth-filling texture. High to very high carbonation provides a prickly, spritzy carbonic bite that enhances the refreshing quality. No alcohol warmth is perceived given the sessionable ABV.
