Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Nortada Pale Ale
◎ Appearance

◐ Taste
Entry is crisp and refreshing, with hop bitterness arriving cleanly on the palate. The mid-palate balances citrus and floral notes against a light, dry malt sweetness. Bitterness remains measured at 38 IBU, finishing dry without astringency or heaviness.
◑ Finish
The finish is crisp and clean, with lingering hop bitterness that fades to a dry, refreshing aftertaste. No residual sweetness or cloying notes persist.
