Better Call Salt

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with good clarity and moderate carbonation visible throughout. The head forms with decent retention and leaves fine lacing down the glass as the beer is consumed. A clean, inviting presentation typical of the West Coast tradition.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with assertive pine and resinous notes from Vic Secret and Chinook hops, backed by pronounced tropical fruit—mango and stone fruit—that lifts the overall profile. Subtle herbal and citrus undertones round out the aromatic complexity without dominating.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and hoppy, delivering immediate tropical and piney character across the mid-palate. The 8.2% body sits comfortably between crisp and full, supporting the hop bitterness without heaviness. Bittering builds gradually, finishing on a measured, dry edge rather than a sharp bite.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste is subtly bitter with lingering pine and citrus notes that fade to a dry, refreshing conclusion. No harsh harshness or lingering astringency—instead a thirst-quenching dryness that invites the next sip.
