Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Buzz

◎ Appearance

Buzz presents a pale golden hue with a distinctly hazy, opaque character that diffuses light throughout the glass. A dense, creamy head forms and clings persistently to the rim, leaving thick trails of foam down the sidewalls. The fine suspension of yeast and proteins creates an inviting, tactile cloudiness characteristic of the style.

◌ Aroma

The nose is immediately tropical and fruit-forward, with vibrant mango and pineapple leading the way, backed by softer stone-fruit notes of peach and lychee. A delicate citrus undertone adds brightness without sharpness. Below the bold hop character sits a subtle, bready Malz foundation from the raw oats and wheat, grounding the aromatic profile.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and pillowy, with the oat and wheat Malz creating a velvety mouthfeel that carries mango and pineapple flavors directly to the palate. The mid-palate maintains juiciness and smoothness while the double dry-hop charge unfolds—each hop addition weaving through without harshness. Bitterness is restrained at 50 IBU, offering a gentle, drying grip rather than aggression, allowing the fruit-forward character to dominate.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and relatively brief, fading from fruity hop notes into a dry, slightly grainy aftertaste. A whisper of peach lingers as the beer clears, leaving the palate refreshed and ready for another sip.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
