Ring A Ding

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with pronounced haziness from suspended yeast and protein, characteristic of the NEIPA style. The dense, off-white head displays good retention and forms distinct lacing along the glass. Fine carbonation rises steadily through the cloudy body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus notes—grapefruit and orange peel from Citra and Simcoe hops—layered with tropical stone fruit and subtle pine undertones. A soft malt sweetness underpins the aromatic profile, with gentle caramel hints from the malt bill adding depth without dominating the composition.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a full, rounded mouthfeel that balances fruity hop expression against restrained malt backbone. Citrus and tropical flavors dominate the mid-palate with clean, dry edges. Bitterness remains integrated at 28 IBU, contributing structure without harshness, while caramel Malz adds subtle sweetness that prevents the beer from turning austere.

◑ Finish

A dry, crisp close leaves the palate refreshed, with lingering fruit notes—particularly citrus and stone fruit—that persist in the aftertaste. The fruity impression remains gentle and inviting rather than clinging.
