PINTA
Cydr Chyliczki

PINTA Kwas Sigma is a vibrant, sour Graff-style ale that bridges the gap between craft beer and traditional cidery. Brewed with a significant 40% addition of fresh-pressed juice from Rubin, Topaz, Szara Reneta, Chopin, and Alwa apples, it delivers a deeply layered pomaceous profile. The sensory experience is dominated by bright, lactic acidity and the complex, earthy character of traditional apple varieties. Expect a crisp, refreshing interplay between tangy fruit skins and a lean malt backbone, resulting in a dry, highly carbonated finish that echoes the craftsmanship of Cydr Chyliczki. This hybrid offers a sophisticated balance of orchard fruit and wild fermentation character.

Appearance. Pours a hazy, pale straw to light gold (3-5 SRM) with a fine-beaded, white head that dissipates moderately fast, leaving light lacing.

Aroma. High intensity of fresh, tart apples and green apple skin. A clean lactic sourness is prominent, complemented by subtle earthy notes and a very low, bready malt background. No hop aroma or esters beyond the fruit.

Taste. Initial impression is a sharp, refreshing lactic acidity followed by complex apple flavors ranging from sweet-tart flesh to tannic skin. The Rubin and Szara Reneta varieties provide a rustic, orchard-like depth. Negligible hop bitterness; the balance is driven entirely by acidity and fruit tannins. The finish is very dry and clean with a lingering tart apple aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a crisp, wine-like structure. High carbonation provides a lively, scrubbing effervescence. Negligible alcohol warmth; a slight, pleasant astringency from the apple tannins enhances the dry finish.
