Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for The Constable
◎ Appearance
Deep golden hue with excellent clarity and a resilient white head that leaves fine lacing down the glass. The carbonation is lively and visible, sustaining a tight foam collar throughout the pour. The color sits rich and inviting, true to its marketed copper character.
◌ Aroma
Galaxy and Topaz hops deliver bright passionfruit and citrus notes that sit above a floral, gently earthy foundation. Crystal and pale malts contribute a subtle caramel sweetness without dominating. The nose is balanced and fresh, with herbal undertones that suggest restraint rather than aggressive hopping.
◐ Taste
Entry is smooth and full-bodied for its modest strength, with caramel notes from the malt foundation grounding tropical fruit character. Mid-palate sustains the citrus and passionfruit, while 28 IBU of bitterness holds firm without becoming sharp or astringent. The bitterness refuses to fade, offering genuine bite within a session-strength frame.
◑ Finish
Medium finish with a dry, hoppy aftertaste that lingers pleasantly without overstaying. The bitterness and floral notes persist through the swallow, leaving a clean, thirst-provoking impression.
