Water & Vuur

◎ Appearance

Water & Vuur presents a pale golden hue with a soft, hazy cloud from yeast in suspension. The head forms quickly and shows good retention, clinging to the glass with fine lacing. Carbonation is lively, visible as a steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the cloudy body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright tropical stone fruits—mango, peach, and pineapple—delivered by the Citra and Lemondrop hop varieties. Beneath the fruit sits a clean, lemony citrus character that keeps the profile fresh and lifted. A subtle grainy undertone from the malt supports without dominating the hoppy expression.

◐ Taste

Entry is juicy and well-defined, with tropical fruit notes rolling across the palate before a crisp, citrus bite develops mid-palate. The bitterness remains fresh and balanced at 45 IBU, never turning harsh or medicinal. The malt body is lean and clean, allowing the hop character to remain the focal point without any cloying sweetness.

◑ Finish

The finish is brisk and moderately dry, with lingering citrus and a subtle hop bite that fades cleanly. A light, refreshing quality persists in the aftertaste without any residual sweetness or astringency.
