Rush Hour

◎ Appearance

Rush Hour presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine white head that exhibits good retention. The carbonation is lively and visible, creating a steady stream of small bubbles that support a persistent collar of foam around the glass rim.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by a vibrant citrus character led by Azacca and complementary US hop varieties. Grapefruit and orange zest are immediately apparent, with underlying notes of passion fruit adding tropical complexity. The Malz base provides a subtle sweet foundation without overwhelming the aromatic hop profile.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright citrus flavors—grapefruit and orange—that establish themselves cleanly on entry. The mid-palate maintains the tropical fruitiness while introducing a moderate bitterness that builds gradually, supported by a light, crisp Malz structure. At 40 IBU, the bitterness is balanced and never harsh, allowing the hop character to remain the focal point.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and refreshing, with lingering citrus notes fading into a gentle hop bitterness. The aftertaste remains crisp and quenching without any residual sweetness.
