Intergalactic Collision

◎ Appearance

Golden to pale amber with a hazy, opaque character typical of the New England style. The dense, persistent white head shows good retention and forms a fine lacing around the glass. Bright carbonation creates a lively visual presence throughout the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe stone fruit—peach and apricot—layered with bright mandarin and passionfruit from the Galaxy and Nelson Sauvin hops. A subtle floral note underpins the bouquet, while Chinook adds a whisper of coconut and white-wine complexity. The grain backbone contributes a soft cereal sweetness without dominating.

◐ Taste

The palate opens juicy and fruit-forward, with peach and citrus notes evolving across the mid-palate into tropical stone fruit and orange character. The oat and wheat bill provides a silky, full mouthfeel that carries the hop-derived flavors smoothly. Bitterness rises moderately in the finish, balancing the fruit sweetness without harsh edges, creating a refreshing overall impression.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-length with a lingering citrus and passionfruit character. A gentle, dry hop bitterness fades gracefully, leaving a fruity and slightly floral aftertaste.
