American Brown Ale 4 º 27 IBU

Zorra

This British Brown Ale presents a refined fusion of traditional malt complexity and regional Mexican identity. Utilizing a grist of six distinct malts, it offers a sophisticated layer of caramel, toasted biscuit, and nutty sweetness. The addition of high-altitude Coatepec coffee introduces an elegant, aromatic roastiness that complements the malt base without overwhelming the palate. Pouring a clear copper with a persistent light tan head, the profile is balanced by a moderate bitterness and a clean, refreshing finish. Its low alcohol presence and light body make for a highly approachable yet flavorful experience, seamlessly bridging the gap between biscuity English traditions and artisanal coffee character.

Appearance. Copper to deep reddish-brown (approximately 18 SRM) with excellent clarity. It features a low to moderate off-white to light tan head with respectable lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity with a dominant sweet malt character showcasing notes of caramel, toasted biscuit, and light toffee. The high-altitude coffee contributes a clean, roasted bean aroma. Low earthy hop notes and a faint hint of fruity esters round out the profile.

Taste. Initial impression of caramel and biscuit sweetness from the complex six-malt blend. The mid-palate reveals nutty and toffee-like depth, integrated with the smooth, non-acrid flavors of Coatepec coffee. Hop bitterness is moderate, providing enough balance to prevent cloying. The finish is medium-dry and clean with a lingering toasted aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Light to medium-light body with a smooth, approachable texture. Carbonation is moderate to medium-high, providing a gentle crispness. There is no significant alcohol warmth, consistent with its sessionable strength.
