Belmont

◎ Appearance

Belmont presents a pale golden hue with exceptional clarity and brightness. The head is fine and persistent, laying down a delicate lacing that clings to the glass with each sip. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a gentle effervescence throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus notes—sharp grapefruit and sweet mandarin peel dominate the top register. Beneath the citrus lies a resinous pine character with subtle herbal edges, accompanied by whispers of berry and tropical stone fruit. The Pilsner malt base provides a clean, barely perceptible grain foundation without sweetness.

◐ Taste

The palate opens dry and crisp with the citrus character carrying through from the aroma into the initial flavors. Bitterness builds steadily across the mid-palate—assertive but balanced, with the 70 IBUs manifesting as a clean, grassy bite rather than harsh harshness. Berry and tropical undertones weave through the finish, while the Pilsner malt contributes only a whisper of grain without any residual sweetness.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and lingering, with the bittering hops fading gradually into a pleasant herbal dryness. The aftertaste remains clean and refreshing, with faint echoes of grapefruit and pine persisting for several minutes.
