Five Points Lager

◎ Appearance

Pale straw yellow with excellent clarity and bright, vivid transparency. A fine white head forms quickly and clings to the glass with good retention, leaving a delicate lace pattern down the sides. The carbonation is lively, evident from the steady stream of small bubbles.

◌ Aroma

Grassy and floral notes lead the nose, characteristic of quality Goldings hops from Kent. A subtle spicy undertone emerges beneath the herbal character, accompanied by a light, slightly sweet bready note from the British lager malt. The overall impression is clean and restrained, with no dominant single note.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a crisp, clean entry and a delicate sweetness that reflects the malt's contribution. The mid-palate maintains good balance, with gentle hop bitterness integrating smoothly rather than asserting itself. At 22 IBU, the finish is dry without harshness, allowing the malt's slight bread-like character to linger pleasantly.

◑ Finish

A short to medium finish that trails cleanly with a lingering suggestion of grain and subtle floral notes. The aftertaste remains dry and refreshing, inviting another sip.
