Ocata

◎ Appearance

Ocata presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass with delicate lacing. The carbonation is crisp and lively, creating a visual impression of freshness and approachability. The light straw color (SRM 6) and bright clarity suggest a well-crafted, clean fermentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe stone fruit—mango and peach—layered atop bright lemon-juice acidity and gentle tropical fruit notes. Palisade hops bring a refined floral and grassy character that never overwhelms, complemented by a whisper of citrus zest. The aromatic profile balances modern fruit-forward hop character with a crisp, herbaceous restraint.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and smooth, with stone fruit and citrus notes unfolding across the palate without harshness. The mid-palate reveals a balanced interplay of peachy sweetness, lemony brightness, and a grassy, floral backbone from the Mosaic and Palisade combination. At 40 IBU, the bitterness is gentle and integrated, allowing the silky malt body to provide foundation without any coarseness.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and refreshing, with citrus and floral notes fading gracefully into a dry, herb-tinged aftertaste. No harshness or astringency lingers; instead, a subtle grassy dryness invites another sip.
