Citrus Splash

◎ Appearance

Pale golden-amber in the glass with a distinctive haze throughout, characteristic of the New England style. The head is full and pillowy, settling to a persistent collar with strong lacing down the glass. Natural carbonation produces fine, steady bubbles that sustain the foam structure.

◌ Aroma

Bright citrus notes dominate the nose immediately—lemon zest and grapefruit—layered with subtle tropical fruit undertones. The hop character is clean and herbal, with no aggressive earthiness, while a soft yeast character contributes gentle notes of stone fruit. The overall impression is aromatic and inviting without being overpowering.

◐ Taste

Entry delivers a crisp citrus bite with bright acidity that defines the palate. Mid-palate develops a delicate balance between the juicy, fruity hop character and a mild, supportive malt backbone that avoids heaviness. Bitterness remains measured at 40 IBU, providing structure without harshness, while a gentle tartness runs throughout and enhances refreshment.

◑ Finish

Clean and dry, with the citrus character fading gracefully into a refreshing, slightly peppery aftertaste. The finish is medium in length, leaving the palate crisp rather than lingering.
