Daylight Chaser

◎ Appearance

Deep mahogany hue with excellent clarity and a tan, persistent head that clings to the glass in fine lacing. The carbonation is lively, evidenced by a steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the liquid. Light enters the beer reluctantly, characteristic of the roasted malt foundation.

◌ Aroma

Bright citrus notes of blood orange and papaya emerge immediately, layered over a toasty, earthy malt backbone. Simcoe and Mosaic hops contribute herbal and resinous undertones that frame the stone fruit complexity. A subtle roasted character adds depth without overshadowing the fruity, hop-forward presence.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with toasted grain and caramel sweetness before tropical hop bitterness arrives mid-palate. Citra hop character brings citrus oil and subtle stone fruit, while black malt contributes roasted cocoa and dried cherry notes. The 60 IBU bitterness is moderate and well-integrated, never harsh, with the 6.3% ABV keeping the body light and approachable.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with citrus and roast lingering gently on the palate. Hop-derived bitterness fades gracefully, leaving a whisper of caramel malt as the final note.
