Stride

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with bright clarity, reflecting the careful balance between Munich and pale malts. The head forms quickly and holds with moderate persistence, leaving fine lacing down the glass. Carbonation appears fine and well-integrated, appropriate for a modern session pale ale.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with stone fruit and tropical character from Mosaic and Galaxy hops—tangerine, passionfruit, and peach come forward without aggressive resin or pine. Beneath the fruit sits a delicate bready sweetness from the malt bill, adding textural depth. The low 10 IBU allows the aromatic layer to sit prominent and inviting rather than austere.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and dry, with the malt contributing a thin sweetness that never becomes cloying. Mid-palate displays citrus and stone fruit notes in balance—lemon edges softly around the fruit core—while the low bitterness remains in the background. The low-carb formulation keeps the beer crisp and clean throughout, without sacrificing the textural quality the wheat malt provides.

◑ Finish

The finish is short and dry, with the bitterness receding quickly to leave only a faint lemon note and malt sweetness. No resinous or lingering hop burn persists; instead, a light, refreshing quality dominates the aftertaste.
