Very dry and assertively bitter.
The malt sets the frame and lets the hops carry the flavour.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Murkshake with Strawberries
◎ Appearance
Hazy golden-amber, opaque and turbid from suspended matter and fruit pulp. The head is dense and persistent, clinging to the glass with fine Schaumhaftung. Carbonation is moderate, releasing small bubbles that rise lazily through the murky body.
◌ Aroma
Fresh ripe strawberry dominates the nose, offering bright berry sweetness and a hint of jammy ripeness. Beneath sits a gentle vanilla bean character, smooth and creamy rather than sharp. Noble hop notes emerge as a supporting frame, adding slight herbal and citrus undertones without overwhelming the fruit.
◐ Taste
Strawberry sweetness enters first, then the palate develops a creamy, full body softened by vanilla and fruit pectin. A gentle tartness from the strawberry skins develops mid-palate, lending complexity and balance. The finish returns to the hoppy edge—a dry, bitter bite that cuts through the fruit sweetness and lingers with pleasant resinous notes.
◑ Finish
The finish is medium to long, with the bitter hop character dominating after the initial fruit impression fades. Dry, resinous, and clean, with a lingering strawberry and vanilla echo in the aftertaste.
