This Australian Sparkling Ale showcases the vibrant character of the Galaxy hop variety against a clean, bready malt backdrop. The pour reveals a deep gold hue with a persistent, frothy white head and high effervescence. On the nose, Galaxy imparts striking aromas of tropical mango, guava, and zesty grapefruit, complemented by subtle apple and pear esters. The palate follows with a rounded grainy sweetness that quickly yields to a firm, intensely tingling bitterness. It finishes crisp and highly attenuated, leaving a refreshing, lingering hop presence and a smooth, medium-bodied mouthfeel that defines this modern interpretation of the style.
Appearance.Deep gold color (5-6 SRM) with brilliant clarity if decanted. Features a tall, frothy, and persistent white head with fine bubbles and noticeable effervescence.
Aroma.Moderate intensity featuring a tropical hop profile of mango, guava, and grapefruit. Underlying notes of soft pear and apple esters mix with a clean, neutral grainy and lightly bready malt character.
Taste.Initial impressions of mild, grainy malt sweetness are rapidly balanced by a medium-high bitterness. Galaxy hops provide flavors of mango and grapefruit that persist into a dry, crisp finish. Low esters of apple are present, with a lingering, resinous, and tingling hop aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with very high carbonation, creating a prickly, spritzy carbonic bite. Smooth texture with no perceived alcohol warmth at this ABV, finishing very well-attenuated and clean.
