Strata

◎ Appearance

Strata pours opaque and hazy with a pale golden undertone beneath the cloudiness. A lasting head forms and clings to the glass with steady retention. The dense, persistent foam suggests a well-constructed body and stable carbonation.

◌ Aroma

Passionfruit and fresh citrus dominate the nose, bright and inviting on the first approach. Beneath the fruit lies a dank, resinous undertone from the Strata hop, preventing the aroma from veering into candy-like territory. The overall profile remains clean and varietal, with the double dry-hop dosing evident in its intensity.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and plush, with tropical fruit character taking the lead across the palate. The dank resin note provides ballast, grounding the sweetness and adding complexity. Bitterness remains restrained and polite, allowing the juicy hop character to shine without harshness, while the full mouthfeel rounds out the drinking experience.

◑ Finish

The finish holds the tropical character in place, with the dank resin lingering gently. The aftertaste is clean and refreshing, fading without astringency.
