Dry and assertively bitter.

A trim base, a hop-led finish — the classic setup for a hop-forward beer.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Aztikeri

Golden-amber hue with a light, hazy appearance characteristic of the style. A moderately dense, persistent white head forms at the pour, showing good adhesion to the glass walls. Bright carbonation is evident throughout, with fine bubbles rising steadily in the body.

Aroma

The nose is dominated by Cascade hop character — prominent citrus and grapefruit notes with a floral undertone that speaks to the local terroir of Navarre cultivation. Stone fruit and orange zest add roundness to the profile, with a subtle herbal earthiness in the background. No aggressive alcohol presence at 6% ABV; the aroma remains clean and inviting.

Taste

Entry is clean and hoppy, with immediate citrus bite and orange pith on the mid-palate. The bitterness (60 IBU) develops steadily without harshness, balanced by a light, crisp body that remains refreshing. Fruity notes — orange, stone fruit — persist through the tasting, complemented by a subtle herbal finish that adds dimension without heaviness.
