Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Lost Forty Easy Tiger

Appearance

Pale straw yellow with excellent clarity and bright, inviting luminosity. A fine white head forms and maintains modest Schaumkleiden along the glass walls. Carbonation appears brisk and well-integrated, characteristic of a properly conditioned lager.

pale strawclearfine carbonationwhite head

Aroma

A restrained, clean nose dominated by light corn-adjunct sweetness and subtle Malz character. Noble hops present themselves as a whisper rather than a declaration—delicate floral and herbal notes in the background. The overall impression is fresh and inviting without aggressive top notes.

Taste

The palate enters with soft, approachable sweetness from corn and base Malz, creating a smooth mouthfeel that avoids heaviness. Mid-palate develops a gentle hop bitterness (22 IBU) that balances without asserting, while the adjunct softness remains the dominant structural element. The finish is dry and clean, with lingering crispness.

Finish

Short to medium finish with a dry, refreshing lager snap that dissipates cleanly. Minimal aftertaste allows the palate to reset quickly, inviting the next sip.
