Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Série Relais New England Pale Ale
◎ Appearance
The pour is veiled and hazy, presenting a soft golden-orange hue beneath the suspended yeast. A fine, delicate head forms and clings to the glass with silky persistence. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, lending the beer a soft, welcoming visual presence.
◌ Aroma
The nose leads with bright tropical stone fruit—pineapple and nectarine—followed by a zesty lemon note that lifts the profile. Nelson Sauvin and Motueka varieties add a subtle white-wine character with hints of gooseberry and dried herbs. The Malz foundation is restrained, allowing the hop complexity to dominate without any harsh alcohol vapour.
◐ Taste
The palate opens with silky texture and the promised stone fruit and citrus notes settling seamlessly across the tongue. Mid-palate brings a light berry undertone and sustained pineapple character, with the New Zealand hops lending a wine-like sophistication. Bitterness remains moderate and restrained, allowing the fruit-forward profile to carry through without any sharp finish.
◑ Finish
The finish is carried by lingering fruit notes rather than assertive hop bitterness or alcohol warmth. Lemon and peach fade gradually, leaving a clean, refreshing aftertaste.
