Oscar

Tap to rate

A hop-led table beer that carries a full IPA-style hop profile at 2.6 per cent. Strata, Citra, Mosaic and Amarillo are used in concentrated forms. It pours a slightly hazy pale gold with a creamy white head. Mango, pineapple and citrus fill the aroma, with a hint of pine; the palate repeats the tropical fruit and adds citrus zest before a light resinous finish. The body is smooth, and the bitterness is crisp and balanced.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with concentrated tropical fruit notes—mango and pineapple dominate the mid-register—alongside bright citrus character that speaks to the hop bill's intensity. A subtle pine undertone emerges beneath the fruit, grounding the profile in resinous Edelpilz character. The overall impression is clean and fresh, with no malt sweetness or fermentation artifacts masking the hop expression.

◐ Taste

The palate mirrors the aroma's tropical and citrus identity, with mango and pineapple meeting zesty citrus zest in the mid-palate. A light resinous quality adds texture and grip without overwhelming the low-alcohol frame. The bitterness remains crisp and well-proportioned, finishing clean rather than harsh or lingering harshly.

◑ Finish

The finish is short to medium, with a dry, resiny aftertaste that gradually fades. The low alcohol allows the beer to remain refreshing rather than warming, leaving the palate clean and ready for another sip.
