Everything Rhymes with Orange

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a white head that settles to a thin, persistent collar. The beer presents bright, crystalline transparency with steady fine carbonation rising through the glass. Lacing adheres cleanly to the walls with each sip.

◌ Aroma

A pronounced citrus bouquet dominates, with blood orange peel and mandarin zest leading the charge. Citra brings grapefruit and lime notes, while Mandarina Bavaria adds a candied, slightly floral quality. The noble hop character is clean and bright, with a subtle malt backbone that remains nearly transparent.

◐ Taste

Entry is snappy and fruit-forward, with immediate citrus impact from the blood orange and hop combination. Mid-palate develops a balanced bitterness at 60 IBU that accentuates rather than overwhelms the fruity character, while a touch of tropical fruit emerges in the middle. The malt structure provides a clean, lean foundation without sweet or caramel notes.

◑ Finish

The finish is crisp and refreshing, with citrus bitterness lingering cleanly on the palate. Aftertaste remains dry with a persistent hop bite that doesn't wear out.
