SUMMER ALE

◎ Appearance

Summer Ale presents a bright, straw-golden hue that immediately conveys its refreshing character. A white, fluffy head forms with good initial retention, displaying fine lacing that clings to the glass as you drink. The beer is clear and well-defined, with lively carbonation that catches the light.

◌ Aroma

The nose is clean and inviting, leading with delicate citrus notes—lemon zest and orange pith—alongside subtle tropical fruit hints that suggest a carefully selected hop bill. A gentle grassy, herbaceous character underpins the composition, while a soft, supporting malted grain presence keeps the aroma grounded and balanced. There is no heavy alcohol or yeast funk; instead, the overall impression is of summer clarity and ease.

◐ Taste

On the palate, Summer Ale delivers a light, approachable mouthfeel with a soft malted grain foundation that prevents the beer from becoming thin or one-dimensional. Zesty hop flavours unfold across the mid-palate, echoing the citrus and herbal notes found in the aroma, while a restrained bitterness (35 IBU) adds structure without dominating. The ale maintains excellent balance, allowing both malt and hop to contribute equally to the drinking experience.

◑ Finish

The finish is crisp, dry and refreshing, with a subtle lingering bitterness that invites another sip rather than leaving a harsh impression. There is no cloying sweetness or heavy warmth; instead, the beer clears the palate cleanly and encourages continued enjoyment.

Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
