American Amber Ale 5.5 º

St. Salvatore

This American Amber Ale offers a nuanced interplay between specialty ingredients and traditional style markers. The foundation is built upon slightly caramelized malts, providing a toasted, sweet bread base that supports the addition of zesty orange peel. American hops introduce a layered citrus and floral intensity that complements the botanical spice. Bright and approachable, the palate balances moderate bitterness with a lingering malt richness. The result is a vibrant, coppery-hued ale where the brightness of the citrus peel lifts the deeper, toffee-like notes, finishing clean with a pleasant, fruity resonance.

Appearance. Deep amber with copper highlights; excellent clarity. Pours with a moderately large, dense off-white head that demonstrates persistent retention and fine lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring a prominent citrus hop character and a distinct spicy, zesty note from orange peel. This is balanced by a moderately-low maltiness showcasing toasted bread and light caramel sweetness. Very low fruity esters.

Taste. Initial impression of malty sweetness followed by moderate caramel and toasty flavors. Hop flavor is moderate, leaning toward citrus and resin, seamlessly integrated with the citrusy bitterness of orange peel. Bitterness is moderate but firm enough to balance the malt. The finish is medium and clean with lingering notes of orange zest and caramel.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate-high, providing a lively prickle on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is very low and well-integrated.
