Asrai

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue sits bright and transparent in the glass, reflecting clean and deliberate brewcraft. The head arrives with moderate density and dissipates to a thin, persistent collar that clings delicately to the rim. Carbonation is evident but restrained, befitting a ale of delicate character.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe tropical stone fruits—apricot and peach—layered beneath crisp, pithy notes of Seville orange. North European noble hops contribute a refined, almost herbal quality, while coriander spice weaves through with subtle warmth. A soft grain bed of wheat and Malz supports without dominating.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and bright, with tropical fruit sweetness immediately engaging the palate alongside the dry, mineral grip of Edelhopfen. Mid-palate develops coriander and orange pith—herbaceous without harshness—while wheat Malz lends a soft, slightly grainy sweetness that balances the 20 IBU bitterness. The finish stays dry and crisp, letting hop character linger without overwhelming.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste is clean and refreshing, fading to a gentle herbal dryness that invites another sip. Hop bitterness recedes quickly, leaving only the faintest grain sweetness on the tongue.
