Goldfinch

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head. The unfiltered character presents a luminous quality typical of the style, with active carbonation visible throughout. Lacing clings consistently to the glass as the beer is consumed.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced citrus notes—tangerine and peach lead, followed by pine from the noble hop blend. Beneath the bright fruit and resin lies a subtle mineral edge that adds dimension and prevents the aromatics from becoming one-dimensional. The six-hop combination balances stone fruit with herbal undertones.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with tropical fruit flavors developing across the mid-palate—mango and citrus zest emerge from the Citra and Nelson Sauvin hops. The five-malt base provides a clean, slightly sweet foundation without heaviness, while the 40 IBUs deliver a measured bitterness that stays balanced rather than assertive. Mineral notes persist alongside the fruit, creating a dry, invigorating character.

◑ Finish

Clean, crisp finish with moderate length and no lingering sweetness. The aftertaste echoes the mineral quality and fades to a pleasant drying sensation on the palate.
