Hofmann

◎ Appearance

Hofmann presents a pale golden hue with a distinctly hazy, turbid body that catches the light with a soft glow. The dense, creamy head forms readily and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. Carbonation appears moderate and well-integrated, lending the beer a fluid, approachable visual character.

◌ Aroma

The nose is immediately bright and layered, with Superdelic and Citra hops driving a vivid citrus and tropical fruit profile—lime zest, blood orange, passionfruit, and stone fruit leap forward with electric intensity. Beneath the hop aromatics lies a soft, grainy malt base and a faint creamy note from the wheat and oat components, while the Verdant yeast contributes subtle fruity esters that enhance the overall lift and aromatic fluidity.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with a bold yet smooth citrus-forward character, waves of grapefruit and stone fruit unfolding fluidly across the mid-palate without harshness. The malt backbone—built on pilsner, wheat, oat, and flaked oat—provides a light sweetness and gentle body that supports the hop intensity without overwhelming it. Bitterness sits at a measured 50 IBU, present but refined, creating a balanced finish that never turns dry or astringent.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately long, with lingering citrus and tropical notes fading gradually into a soft, slightly grainy sweetness. No harsh bitterness or alcohol burn intrudes, leaving the mouth refreshed and ready for another sip.
