High Hops

◎ Appearance

High Hops presents a bright amber hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass. The carbonation is lively, evident in steady streams of small bubbles that maintain the foam structure throughout the tasting experience.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by citrus notes—grapefruit and orange peel—layered with resinous pine and hints of tropical fruit that suggest stone fruit and light floral character. The malt base remains understated, providing gentle sweetness without competing with the assertive hop aromatics.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and citrusy, with bright grapefruit and orange flavors immediately present on the palate. The mid-palate reveals subtle tropical fruit complexity and soft floral undertones, balanced by a clean, lightly sweet malt foundation that prevents harshness. Bitterness builds gradually but remains measured, finishing with a dry, hoppy quality rather than aggressive bite.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and lingering, with citrus and pine notes persisting without overstaying their welcome. A light dryness carries through, leaving the palate refreshed rather than fatigued.
