Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Far Beyond The Stars

◎ Appearance

A striking pale green hue dominates, derived from the spirulina adjunct, lending the beer visual presence on the shelf. The beer presents bright clarity with gentle carbonation; a modest white head forms and dissipates quickly, leaving minimal lacing. The low SRM underscores the adjunct-forward brewing approach.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright kiwi fruit, offering tropical and citric top notes that immediately suggest the beer's refreshing intent. Behind the fruit sits a gentle lactic tang—crisp and clean, without funky or wild-ferment character. Spirulina contributes a faint herbaceous, almost mineral backdrop that complements rather than dominates.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and dry, with kiwi acidity cutting cleanly across the palate before a pronounced lactic sourness develops in the mid-palate. The fruit character remains tart and refreshing throughout, balanced by a bone-dry finish with minimal residual sweetness. At 15 IBU, bitterness is restrained, allowing the sour and fruity character to hold center stage.

The finish is short and clean, with the sour and fruity notes fading quickly into a dry, mineral-like aftertaste. No lingering sweetness or harsh bite remains.
