Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Raspberry Pale

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with bright clarity and lively carbonation visible as fine bubbles rising steadily through the glass. A modest white head forms on the pour with good retention and delicate lacing that clings to the glass as you drink. The canned version maintains excellent visual clarity and effervescence when served cold.

◌ Aroma

Fresh and inviting nose with distinct raspberry fruit character that emerges immediately, complemented by floral and herbal Edelhopfen notes. The malt provides a soft, biscuit-like backbone without heaviness. Clean fermentation profile allows the interplay between fruit and hop character to remain foreground.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright raspberry fruit that integrates seamlessly with crisp, balanced bitterness from the hops. Mid-palate remains light and refreshing, with the 35 IBU providing structure without dominating the fruit expression. The finish is dry and clean, leaving a gently lingering hop bite alongside fading raspberry notes.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste lingers briefly with a combination of subtle berry undertones and dry hop character. The moderate alcohol warmth at 4.7% ABV dissipates quickly, leaving no heaviness behind.

Serve at 7–10°C

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.

Pint glass

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

Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
