Ohio

◎ Appearance

Ohio presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright transparency. A fine white head forms readily and shows good retention, with delicate lacing clinging to the glass as you drink. The carbonation is crisp and visible, creating steady streams of fine bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent American hop character: grapefruit zest and white grapefruit pith lead, followed by clean stone-fruit notes of peach and apricot. Pine and herbal undertones from the noble hops provide a resinous counterpoint, while a subtle wheat note grounds the profile without adding sweetness.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with the grapefruit and pine hop bitterness arriving immediately on the palate. Mid-palate sustains the bitter citrus bite with a dry, clean malt backbone from the barley and wheat blend; no residual sweetness intrudes. The 40 IBUs build a moderate, drying bitterness that persists without harshness.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and comparatively short, trailing off into lingering hop bitterness and a subtle pine note. No cloying aftertaste remains—the wheat and barley dry cleanly on the tongue.
