Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Cry Me a River
◎ Appearance
Pale straw yellow with excellent clarity and a bright, fine head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass. The carbonation is lively and persistent, creating a crisp visual impression characteristic of the style's refreshing nature.
◌ Aroma
The nose opens with bright citrus notes and subtle herbal qualities from the Hallertauer hops, immediately followed by a pronounced coriander spice character. Wheat malt contributes a light grainy undertone, while the lactic fermentation adds a gentle tartness to the overall aromatic profile without overwhelming complexity.
◐ Taste
The palate presents an immediate dry tartness balanced with a gentle mineral saltiness that recalls the sea brine addition. Mid-palate shows the wheat malt's soft, slightly grainy foundation supporting the coriander's peppery notes, while the lactic acid bacteria contribute a clean sour edge without harshness. The finish remains crisp and refreshing throughout.
◑ Finish
The finish is clean and moderately short, with the tartness lingering pleasantly as a dry aftertaste. The saltiness fades gradually, leaving a bright, quenching sensation.
