Piñata

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with excellent clarity and fine, persistent carbonation. The head is compact and well-retained, with delicate lacing that clings to the glass throughout the drinking experience. The beer presents with a bright, inviting appearance that signals its refreshing character.

◌ Aroma

The nose is immediately dominated by ripe mango and guava, lifted by Citra, Azacca and Mosaic hops that add layers of citrus and tropical stone fruit. These fruit notes—both from adjuncts and hops—meld seamlessly without any harsh or vegetal character. There is underlying softness from the pale malz base that allows the fruit to remain the focal point.

◐ Taste

The palate enters soft and juicy, with tropical fruit flavors immediately apparent but not cloying. Mid-palate balances the inherent sweetness of mango and guava against a measured hop bitterness and citrus bite from the noble hop varieties. At 4.5% ABV, the beer remains light and easy-drinking while still delivering genuine flavor complexity and a crisp, clean finish on the tongue.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and crisp, with tropical and citrus notes lingering gently without overstaying. The beer leaves a refreshing, clean aftertaste that invites another sip rather than coating the mouth.
