Lower Columbia Lager

◎ Appearance

A pale, crystalline gold with excellent clarity and bright transparency. The head forms quickly but settles to a thin, persistent collar with good lacing. Carbonation is visible and lively, producing a steady stream of fine bubbles.

◌ Aroma

Subtle and restrained, with a delicate grain foundation. Adeena hops contribute a whisper of noble character—a touch of herbal earthiness—while the malt presents a soft, biscuity sweetness without dominance. No esters or phenolics; the profile remains clean and approachable.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with gentle sweetness from the Malz, balanced by minimal hop bitterness (12 IBU). Flaked rice contributes a light, dry texture and prevents any cloying sensation. The mid-palate is crisp and clean, allowing the delicate malt and subtle hop structure to unfold without interference. Bitterness remains soft and fleeting.

◑ Finish

The finish is short and refreshing, fading quickly into a faint grain dryness. No lingering harshness or astringency; the aftertaste is neutral and inviting.
