Disco

Australia·Hazy Pale Ale
Tap to rate

Disco is the hazy pale ale that anchors the permanent side of the Range catalogue. Double dry-hopping with American and New Zealand varieties drives the aroma, which opens on fresh melon and passionfruit and closes with a lift of orange zest. The body is medium to full with a soft, fluffy carbonation, and the colour is a clouded pale gold. Bitterness stays low but remains present enough to keep the fruit from turning sweet, which is much of the reason the beer drinks as easily as it does.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Disco

◎ Appearance

Disco presents a clouded pale gold body, its haze arising from the yeast suspension characteristic of the style. The head is soft and fluffy with fine, persistent carbonation that creates a delicate visual texture. Lacing clings gently to the glass, marking each sip with a fine lattice.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with fresh melon and ripe passionfruit, driven by the interplay of American and New Zealand hop varieties in the double dry-hop charge. A bright lift of orange zest rounds out the bouquet, with no harsh phenolics or rough edges—the aromatic profile remains clean and inviting throughout.

◐ Taste

The palate is medium to full-bodied, with tropical fruit notes carrying through from the aroma into a smooth, well-integrated mid-palate. Bitterness arrives as a gentle counterpoint, restrained but present enough to frame the fruit and prevent any slip into cloying sweetness. The overall drinking experience remains easy and approachable despite the hop character.
