Phantom Edit

◎ Appearance

Phantom Edit presents a pale golden hue with a light amber tinge, characteristic of its 8 SRM. The beer shows good clarity with a fine, persistent white head that leaves delicate lacing down the glass. Carbonation appears brisk and well-integrated, supporting a clean, inviting presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant citrus notes—primarily lime and grapefruit from the Citra and Wakatu hop combination. Underneath, delicate floral character emerges, complemented by subtle herbal and grassy undertones. The double dry-hop treatment amplifies these aromatics without overwhelming, while a soft, biscuity malt backbone remains present but restrained.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with crisp citrus bite tempered by oats and wheat, which lend a creamy, almost silken mouthfeel. Mid-palate reveals the floral complexity promised on the nose, with gentle tropical undertones and a balanced bitterness that sits comfortably rather than dominates. The finish is dry and clean, allowing hop character to linger without astringency.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-length and refreshingly crisp, with citrus and floral notes gradually fading into a clean, dry aftertaste. No lingering harshness or residual sweetness—instead, a gentle return to the hop-defined character that defines this beer.

Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
