RecreationAle

◎ Appearance

RecreationAle presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright luminosity. The head forms quickly and holds with good retention, leaving delicate Schaumkleiden down the glass as it settles. Carbonation is lively and visible throughout, appropriate to the session style.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant citrus fruit—grapefruit and mandarin notes predominate, courtesy of Galaxy and Citra. A crisp, herbal undertone emerges from Centennial and Zythos, while Amarillo contributes subtle stone-fruit warmth. The malt base remains restrained and clean, allowing the hoppy character to shine without any yeasty or oxidative notes.

◐ Taste

The palate entry is light and refreshing, with citrus brightness immediately apparent. Mid-palate develops a balanced bitterness at 34 IBU—enough to define structure without overwhelming the clean malt foundation. The finish is dry and crisp, with lingering citrus zest and a subtle herbal bite that frames the modest alcohol warmth.

◑ Finish

The finish is short to medium, leaving the palate refreshed rather than weighted. A faint citrus pith dryness persists as the final note, inviting the next sip.
