The Kernel Brewery Pale Ale Superdelic Citra
American Pale Ale 5.3 º
This American Pale Ale highlights the innovative fusion of New Zealand's Superdelic and the iconic American Citra hop. The sensory profile is defined by a vivid interplay of ripe tropical fruit, zesty grapefruit, and a distinctive red berry or candy-like sweetness characteristic of the Superdelic variety. True to The Kernel's house style, the beer is expertly attenuated, offering a dry and exceptionally light-bodied experience that allows the complex hop oils to dominate. The Citra provides a sharp citrus backbone, while a neutral malt base ensures the finish remains crisp and refreshing, emphasizing hop individuality over malt sweetness.
Appearance. Pale golden to light amber (6-7 SRM) with a moderately large, frothy white head that shows good retention and leaves delicate lacing. Clarity is brilliant to very clear.
Aroma. High hop intensity featuring prominent notes of mango, passionfruit, and lime from the Citra, alongside sweet red berries and a hint of bubblegum from the Superdelic. A low, neutral grainy maltiness provides a clean background with no significant caramel or toast. Clean fermentation profile with negligible esters.
Taste. Initial impression is hop-forward with flavors of citrus zest and tropical fruit. The Superdelic hops contribute a unique berry-like depth. Bitterness is moderate to firm (approximately 40 IBU), balanced by a very lean, crackery malt presence. The finish is notably dry and clean, with lingering notes of grapefruit peel and resinous hops that do not become harsh.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a crisp, dry character. Carbonation is moderate to high, providing a prickly, refreshing sensation. No alcohol warmth is detected, and the finish is smooth and devoid of astringency.
