Pelican Lite IPA

◎ Appearance

A bright, clear gold that catches light with ease. The head forms with moderate density and recedes steadily, leaving thin strands of lacing on the glass. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated throughout the body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with sweet pine and pink grapefruit, characteristic of well-chosen noble hops. Beneath the citrus lies a soft, clean malt base that supports without dominating. No yeast-driven esters; the profile remains crisp and forward-facing.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and dry despite the fruity aromatics; the palate remains light and refreshing without thinness. Bitterness sits at 40 IBU—present but measured, allowing the piney and grapefruit notes to weave through the mid-palate. Residual sweetness balances the hop edge without cloying.

◑ Finish

Medium-short, with the bitterness tapering gracefully into a clean, dry aftertaste. No lingering sweetness; the grapefruit note fades to a faint pine memory.
