American Pale Ale 4.5 º

Overtone Brewing Co

Overtone’s Resonator is a vibrant and approachable American Pale Ale that leans into a citrus-forward personality. At a sessionable 4.5% ABV, it presents a bright sensory profile defined by high-frequency notes of grapefruit and lemon zest. The hop character is balanced by a subtle, grainy malt depth that provides a clean foundation for the bold finish. Resonator prioritizes drinkability and clarity of flavor, offering a crisp experience that highlights modern hop usage. It captures the essence of the style by being hop-forward yet harmonious, delivering a refreshing resonance of citrus and light pine that lingers pleasantly on the palate.

Appearance. Pale golden to light amber (approx. 6-8 SRM). Topped with a moderately large, off-white head that shows good retention and leaves delicate lacing. Generally clear with high brilliance.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity aroma showcasing bright citrus characteristics like grapefruit peel and tangerine. Underlying notes of light pine and floral spice are present. The malt character is low but supportive, offering hints of crackery grain and a touch of bready sweetness. Fermentation is clean with very low fruity esters.

Taste. Initial impression is hop-centric with vibrant lemon and orange zest flavors. Malt flavors are neutral to lightly grainy, providing a lean backbone that allows the hops to shine. Bitterness is moderate but firm, well-tuned to the low ABV. The finish is crisp and dry, leaving a clean aftertaste of citrus oils and a faint resinous note. Balance is decidedly towards the hops.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a crisp, refreshing texture. Carbonation is moderate to high, providing a lively prickle on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is non-existent, and the finish is smooth without any detectable astringency.
