Citrus Mirage

◎ Appearance

Pale golden-yellow with a distinctly hazy, opaque character from suspended yeast and protein. A thick, creamy white head forms and maintains good Schaumkleiden around the glass. Fine carbonation creates a lively effervescence beneath the surface.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus from Citra hops—pronounced lemon zest and lime pith—layered over a juicy tropical fruit character from Simcoe: ripe pineapple, mango, and papaya skin. Beneath this fruit-forward profile sits a subtle malty sweetness and a delicate herbal undertone that grounds the composition without dominating.

◐ Taste

Entry is full and juicy with tropical stone fruit and citrus pith tones. The mid-palate balances ripe fruit flavors—papaya and mango forward—with a soft, supporting malt body and minimal bitterness at just 20 IBU. The finish dries gently without harsh astringency, allowing the fruity character to persist.

◑ Finish

A medium-length finish with fruit-driven sweetness receding into a clean, slightly dry palate. Lingering notes of citrus zest and pineapple accompany a faint herbal backdrop.
