Vault City Brewing

This vibrant Radler captures the essence of summer with an incredibly refreshing and crushable profile. Zesty lemon juice provides a bright, citrusy punch that is artfully balanced by a subtle, warming ginger heat. Breaking from the brewery’s typical sour focus, this clean and juicy beer highlights the soft floral and citrus nuances of Saphir hops. The result is an effortlessly drinkable experience where the fruit and spice take center stage over a light, crisp malt base. It is designed for maximum drinkability, offering a zesty acidity and a clean, thirst-quenching finish that perfectly defines the refreshing character of a Fruit Beer.

Appearance. Pale straw to light yellow (2-3 SRM). The beer displays a slight haze from the inclusion of lemon juice. It pours with a moderate white head that shows fair retention, leaving light lacing as it recedes.

Aroma. High intensity of fresh lemon zest and juice dominates the aroma. This is complemented by a moderate, spicy, and earthy ginger character. A low grainy-sweet malt presence provides a background for soft floral and citrus notes from Saphir hops. The fermentation profile is very clean.

Taste. The initial impression is a burst of tart, zesty lemon juice followed by a light, warming ginger spice. Malt flavor is low, providing a grainy-sweet foundation. Hop bitterness is very low, as the lemon acidity provides the primary structural balance. The finish is crisp, dry, and incredibly refreshing with a lingering citrus aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Light body with a crisp, somewhat thin texture enhanced by high carbonation. There is no perceived alcohol warmth. The ginger provides a very slight, pleasant tingle on the palate without any astringency.
