Megalodom

◎ Appearance

Megalodom presents a golden-amber hue with pronounced haziness from the suspended grain and yeast matter. The dense, persistent head clings to the glass with visible lacing, while vigorous carbonation produces a fine cascade throughout. The turbid body catches light with an inviting, opaque quality characteristic of the style.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with layered tropical fruit—mango and passion fruit leap forward from the Azacca and El Dorado hops, underscored by bright citrus zest from Citra and Amarillo. A resinous pine backbone emerges as the beer warms, while the Vienna and Carahell malts contribute subtle caramel sweetness beneath the hop assault. Faint alcohol warmth rounds the aromatics without dominating.

◐ Taste

Entry brings immediate tropical and citrus intensity from the hop blend, with peppery Nugget bitterness asserting itself at the midpoint. The malt backbone—built on 2-row and Vienna with rolled oats—provides enough body and sweetness to anchor the 70 IBU without becoming cloying. The finish evolves from fruit-forward to increasingly piney and resinous, with a lingering herbal and bitter bite that persists cleanly.

◑ Finish

A long, drying finish leaves resinous bitterness and herbal notes on the palate, with alcohol warmth gently emerging. The 10% ABV reads as present but integrated, supporting rather than overwhelming the hop character.
