Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Cold Blooded
◎ Appearance
Pale golden hue with pronounced haze throughout the glass, characteristic of the style. The head is full and persistent, with fine bubbles that maintain good adhesion to the glass. Bright carbonation is visible, contributing to the beer's vibrant, alive appearance.
◌ Aroma
The nose is dominated by tropical and stone fruit notes, with mango and pineapple at the forefront. Behind these sit cantaloupe and stone fruit character, while a soft melon sweetness threads through the aroma. The Riwaka and Citra hops deliver their signature fruity esters cleanly, with minimal malt presence.
◐ Taste
The palate entry is smooth and round, with the malt playing a supporting role without asserting sweetness. Mid-palate develops the juicy tropical character, echoing the aroma's mango and stone fruit notes. Bitterness remains low and well-integrated, allowing the fruity esters and soft sweetness to drive the flavor without harshness.
◑ Finish
The finish is clean and refreshing, with a lingering juicy aftertaste that fades without astringency. The beer closes with a soft sweetness and tropical note rather than a bitter edge.
