Top Out Brewery Alpenglow
Fruit Lambic 4.2 º
Alpenglow is a vibrant Wild Specialty Beer that captures the essence of a summer sunset. It leads with an inviting, natural strawberry aroma, underpinned by a clean, tangy lactic acidity. The palate is defined by a refreshing burst of tart red fruit, where the strawberry flavor remains bright and authentic without being cloying. A delicate grain bill provides a soft, bready foundation that balances the sharp acidity of the kettle souring process. Effervescent and crisp, it finishes remarkably dry, leaving a lingering, mouth-watering zest that perfectly embodies its refreshing intent and tangy fruit character.
Appearance. Pours a delicate salmon-pink with a slight hazy luminescence. It is topped by a fine, white to pale-pink head that recedes quickly, typical of high-acidity styles, leaving minimal lacing.
Aroma. High intensity of fresh, ripe strawberries dominates the bouquet. A moderate, clean lactic sourness provides a yogurt-like tang, while the malt profile remains low with subtle notes of cracked wheat. Hop aroma is absent.
Taste. The initial impression is a sharp, refreshing tang of lactic acid, immediately followed by juicy strawberry flavors. The fruit character is authentic and unsweetened. Low bready malt presence supports the mid-palate. Bitterness is nearly imperceptible, allowing the tartness to lead. The finish is short and bone-dry with a lingering strawberry zest.
Mouthfeel. Light-bodied and crisp. High carbonation provides a prickly, effervescent sensation on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is non-existent, and there is no significant tannin or astringency, resulting in a smooth, puckering mouthfeel.
