Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Sundog
◎ Appearance
A clear copper-red body with bright, translucent depth. The head is off-white and moderately persistent, building a light lacing ring along the glass. Carbonation is fine and steady, creating a gentle shimmer throughout the pour.
◌ Aroma
The nose opens with toasted caramel and soft biscuit notes, underpinned by warm Malz character. A subtle honey sweetness emerges alongside delicate floral and nutty undertones, while moderate American hop aromatics add a touch of herbal composure without dominating.
◐ Taste
The palate leads with rounded caramel and toasted grain sweetness, bolstered by a bready mid-palate that feels soft and well-integrated. A moderate American hop bitterness arrives in the centre, balancing the malt without pushing toward dryness, creating a smooth, unhurried progression.
◑ Finish
The finish is clean and moderately long, trailing toasted grain and a faint nutty echo. The hop bitterness recedes gracefully, leaving a gentle warmth and a quiet sense of refreshment.
