Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Lost Forty 2nd Rodeo Light Beer

◎ Appearance

Pale straw yellow with bright clarity and effortless transparency. A modest white head forms quickly and recedes within moments, leaving only a faint ring of lacing along the glass. Fine carbonation rises steadily, maintaining visual liveliness throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with soft cereal and cracker notes from the rice adjunct, followed by a whisper of lemon zest and green herbal undertones. The aromatic profile remains restrained and clean, with just enough grassy Edelhopfen character to suggest freshness without dominating the delicate balance.

◐ Taste

The palate enters lean and crisp, with light breadiness and a hint of honeyed grain moving through the mid-palate. Grassy hop bitterness develops moderately—firm enough to provide structure but never harsh—finishing with a subtle suggestion of graham and honey that prevents any harshness. The rice adjunct lends a smooth, almost slippery texture that supports drinkability.

◑ Finish

The finish is brief and dry, with grassy hop bitterness fading quickly into a pilsner-like mineral dryness. No lingering sweetness or grain heaviness remains.
