Panja Paloma

◎ Appearance

Pale golden yellow with a subtle haze from oat flakes and wheat, creating a soft, cloudy appearance characteristic of the style. The head is modest but persistent, with delicate lacing that clings to the glass. Carbonation is brisk and visible, giving the beer a lively, refreshing character.

◌ Aroma

The nose immediately evokes the promised Paloma cocktail: fresh grapefruit and lime zest dominate, with subtle tequila-like spice notes in the background. Beneath the citrus lies a soft, bready wheat character from the malted grains, with a whisper of oat adding gentle earthiness. The overall impression is crisp, summery, and inviting.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright citrus—grapefruit and lemon—that drives the mid-palate with refreshing acidity and a light, clean malt backbone of barley and wheat. The oat flakes provide subtle body and a slight creamy mouthfeel, while bitterness remains restrained at 14 IBU, allowing the fruit and grain to shine. The tequila element adds a dry spice that lingers without overwhelming.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with the citrus lingering pleasantly on the palate without astringency. A faint bready sweetness fades quickly, leaving behind the memory of fresh grapefruit and lime.
