Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Summit Hazy Mid
◎ Appearance
Summit Hazy Mid presents a deliberately cloudy pour, its pale golden hue diffused by suspended yeast and protein, creating an opaque yet luminous appearance. The soft, pillowy head forms readily and clings to the glass with modest persistence. Carbonation is gentle and even, befitting the beer's approachable mid-strength character.
◌ Aroma
The nose leads with bright tropical fruit notes—ripe pineapple, passionfruit, and mango—delivered by the Citra, Galaxy, Simcoe, and Vic Secret hop blend. A subtle citrus zest undercuts the stone fruit, while a light herbal-pine edge adds complexity without dominating. The Malz base remains restrained, allowing the hops their full voice.
◐ Taste
Entry is clean and refreshing, with a light body that avoids any heaviness despite the generous hop loading. The palate develops tropical and citrus flavours in parallel, building a pleasant fruity middle without sweetness. The 25 IBU bitterness arrives as a dry, balancing force, cutting through the fruit and preventing any cloying finish.
◑ Finish
The finish is short to medium, clean and refreshing, with the bitterness lingering as a gentle, pleasant dryness. The low alcohol and restrained Malz character ensure no warmth or heaviness remains.
