Twilight Poolside is a vibrant Wild Specialty Beer that masterfully balances a complex array of adjuncts against a bright, acidic backdrop. The sensory journey begins with an inviting bouquet of fresh-picked strawberries and zesty lemonade, softened by the tropical, creamy influence of coconut and vanilla. A base of wild fermentation introduces subtle funky undertones and a sharp, refreshing lactic tartness. On the palate, the interplay between the tart lemon and sweet strawberry creates a nostalgic lemonade character, while the coconut and vanilla provide a smooth, rounded finish that lingers. It is a refreshing, multi-layered experience that evokes a sun-drenched afternoon.
Appearance.Pours a hazy, glowing pinkish-amber with a soft, rose-tinted head that dissipates moderately. Lacing is minimal due to the high adjunct content.
Aroma.High intensity aromatics of sun-ripened strawberry and bright lemon zest. Secondary layers of toasted coconut and sweet vanilla bean merge with a mild earthy funk and lactic acidity characteristic of a wild fermentation.
Taste.Initial sharp tartness of fresh lemonade followed by the lush, jammy flavor of strawberries. The mid-palate introduces a silky coconut and vanilla creaminess that tempers the acidity. Finishes very dry and crisp with a lingering hint of fruit skin and tropical sweetness.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a refreshing, brisk carbonation. The addition of vanilla and coconut provides a deceptive perceived creaminess despite the lean, acidic structure. Very low astringency.
