Dawn Again

Tap to rate

Citrus-forward aromatics lead, followed by moderate sweetness, a slight bitterness and a subtle tartness on a pillow-soft mouthfeel. Cashmere, Sabro and Chinook handle the hops over two-row, honey malt, flaked rice and golden naked oats. At 5.5 % ABV and 40 IBU it is the hazy pale of the line-up; its label shows a skull with flowers and mushrooms growing out of it.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Dawn Again

◎ Appearance

Hazy pale golden hue with a SRM of 8, presenting the characteristic turbidity of the style derived from suspended yeast and grain particles. The head forms quickly and clings to the glass with moderate retention, leaving delicate lacing on the walls. Carbonation appears lively but restrained, appropriate to the lower ABV.

◌ Aroma

Citrus aromatics dominate immediately—lime, grapefruit, and bright orange peel lead the charge from the Cashmere, Sabro and Chinook hop combination. Underlying notes of honey Malz and a whisper of floral character suggest the oat and rice adjuncts contributing subtle sweetness. No harsh alcohol vapors intrude despite the clean fermentation.

◐ Taste

Entry is pillowy-soft with a moderate sweetness that builds from the honey Malz and flaked rice, creating a gentle mouthfeel. Mid-palate introduces layered citrus notes with a subtle tartness cutting through the sweetness, while 40 IBUs deliver restrained bitterness that never overwhelms. The combination of tropical and juicy undertones emerges as the beer warms slightly on the tongue.
