Switchback Citrus Ale

◎ Appearance

Pale gold in the glass with good translucency and a clean, bright presentation. Medium carbonation produces a modest white head that settles to a thin collar. The lacing fades quickly, leaving minimal trace on the glass sides.

◌ Aroma

Orange and lemon peel dominate the nose, presenting bright and fresh rather than candied or heavy. Beneath the citrus lies a light honeyed sweetness from the malt base, with no harsh fermentation notes—the yeast remains neutral and clean. A gentle hoppy frame supports without overshadowing the fruit character.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with crisp citrus on entry, orange and lemon notes riding over a soft, delicate malt backbone. The mid-palate stays refreshing and light, with the honeyed sweetness providing texture without heaviness. At 17 IBU, bitterness frames rather than dominates, finishing more zesty than dry.

◑ Finish

Short and snappy, with a zesty citrus note lingering rather than a drying astringency. The beer fades quickly and cleanly.

Serve at 7–10°C. Light and refreshing — serve cold to keep the delicate hop and malt balance intact.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
