Slush

◎ Appearance

Slush presents a pale, straw-yellow hue with excellent clarity and a delicate white head that settles quickly. The beer shows lively carbonation with a fine bead rising steadily through the glass. Lacing is minimal but present, leaving only faint traces on the glass wall.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright strawberry and raspberry puree notes, followed by zesty lemon and lime zest that cuts through cleanly. Underlying malt presence is subtle and restrained, allowing the fruit and citrus to dominate without any harsh fermentation character. The overall impression is vibrant and refreshingly aromatic, evoking a tart fruit cordial.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and sour-forward, with berry flavors coating the palate immediately. Mid-palate develops into a complex interplay of tart strawberry, raspberry, and citrus acidity, supported by a lean malted backbone that provides just enough structure without sweetness. Bitterness is nearly absent at 10 IBU, allowing the fruit acids and zest to define the flavor arc entirely.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and brisk, with lingering lemon and lime zest notes fading gradually over several seconds. Residual tartness persists pleasantly without becoming harsh or astringent.
