Laid Back

◎ Appearance

Laid Back presents a pale golden hue with bright transparency and lively carbonation. The white head forms quickly and maintains itself with fine, persistent lacing around the glass. The unfiltered character remains visually clean despite the brewery's commitment to natural conditioning.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant citrus—grapefruit and lime—layered beneath herbaceous pine needles and resinous Edelhopfen character from Citra and Chinook. Malt presence remains subtle and supportive, allowing the hop aromatics to dominate without sharp alcohol notes despite the moderate strength.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and immediately dry, with citrus flavors translating cleanly from the nose into a lean palate. Mid-palate builds gentle bitterness and piney resin without astringency, while the 4.8% ABV keeps the overall sensation refreshing and approachable. Malt backbone is minimal, serving only to frame the hop expression.

◑ Finish

The finish is notably dry with lingering pine and grapefruit notes fading into a clean, barely-sweet aftertaste. Bitterness recedes quickly, leaving the palate refreshed and ready for another sip.
