The First & Last Brewery Zest
Pale Ale 4.2 º
This American Pale Ale is a bright, citrus-forward session beer defined by the intense aromatics of orange zest, juice, and puree. Amarillo hops amplify the fruit profile with layers of tangerine and apricot, while the spicy, floral nuances of First Gold hops provide a nuanced counterpoint to the sweetness of the citrus. The malt backbone is purposefully lean, offering subtle notes of cracker and white bread to support the fruit without distraction. It delivers a refreshing, crisp experience with a moderate bitterness that cleanses the palate, making it an exceptionally drinkable example of a fruit-enhanced pale ale.
Appearance. Pale golden (approx. 6 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Pours with a moderately large, frothy white head that shows good retention and leaves patchy lacing on the glass.
Aroma. High intensity citrus aroma featuring fresh orange zest and sweet orange oils. Amarillo hops contribute distinct notes of grapefruit and melon, supported by a faint floral spice from First Gold. Malt character is low and neutral, reminiscent of fresh grain or white bread. Clean fermentation profile.
Taste. The initial impression is a vibrant burst of orange juice and tangy zest. Moderate hop bitterness provides structure, balancing a light, biscuity malt sweetness. Hop flavors of stone fruit and citrus pith from Amarillo meld with the orange puree. The fermentation is clean, leading to a medium-dry finish with a lingering, refreshing citrus aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate to high carbonation that creates a crisp, effervescent sensation. No alcohol warmth is perceived at this strength. Smooth and clean without any lingering astringency.
