Parade

◎ Appearance

Parade presents a pale golden hue with prominent haze from its oat and wheat bill and London Fog yeast, creating an opaque, cloudy appearance. The dense, cream-coloured head forms readily and maintains good retention and lacing throughout the glass. Bright carbonation is evident in steady streams rising through the murky body.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with ripe stone fruit and tropical notes: candied mango, bright orange peel, and fresh pineapple lead, followed by subtle peach undertones. A soft, almost bubblegum-like sweetness complements the fruit, with the oats and wheat contributing a faint creamy, biscuity backdrop. Hoppy intensity is present but restrained, allowing the fruit character to dominate.

◐ Taste

The palate is full and soft, with a pillowy mouthfeel from the oat-wheat base. Flavours of ripe stone fruit, melon, and subtle citrus peel develop smoothly across the mid-palate, underscored by a whisper of creamy grain. Bitterness remains in the background, offering balance without harshness, while a gentle sweetness rounds the profile.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and juicy, with lingering peach and melon giving way to a soft, dry fade. The aftertaste is refreshing and free of astringency, the bitterness fading quickly to leave only fruit and a touch of residual sweetness.
