Stone Fruit

Tap to rate

A summer ale built around stone fruit, with peach and apricot up front and mango filling in behind them. It pours lightly hazy and stays juicy without turning sweet; the malt is pale and keeps to the background, and the hopping is restrained enough that the fruit is never crowded. The finish is crisp and short. Brewed as a warm-weather seasonal.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Stone Fruit

◎ Appearance

A lightly hazy golden blonde that catches light without obscuring detail. The head forms readily and maintains a delicate presence, leaving fine strands of lacing as you drink. Carbonation is present but restrained, allowing the suspension of fruit to remain visible.

◌ Aroma

Stone fruit dominates immediately—ripe peach and apricot leap from the glass, with softer mango notes developing beneath. The pale malt provides a neutral backdrop, neither asserting grain nor adding sweetness. Hop presence is subtle and measured, never competing with the fruit character.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright peach character that feels juicy without veering into candy. Apricot and mango develop through the middle, sustained by a clean, pale malt base that stays firmly in the background. Bitterness is gentle and balancing rather than assertive, allowing the fruit to remain the focal point through to the swallow.

◑ Finish

The finish is crisp and deliberately short, leaving a dry, refreshing sensation without lingering sweetness. A light fruit echo fades quickly, leaving the palate cleansed and ready for another sip.
