Deadlift

◎ Appearance

Medium amber to light copper in color, with excellent clarity and a firm, off-white head that displays good retention and lacing. The carbonation is crisp and visible, with steady bubbles rising through the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus and stone fruit notes from Nelson Sauvin hops, complemented by ripe berry undertones and subtle floral character. Beneath the hop-forward aromatics lies a clean, sweet malty base with gentle caramel notes that provide balance without obscuring the hop profile.

◐ Taste

The palate delivers immediate hop intensity with pronounced citrus and berry flavors that drive the mid-palate experience. Caramel sweetness and malty depth provide counterbalance, while moderate bitterness builds cleanly on the finish without becoming harsh or astringent. The 8.6% alcohol is well-integrated, adding body and warmth without obvious heat.

◑ Finish

The finish is long and lingering, with hop bitterness gradually fading to reveal residual caramel and berry notes. A dry, resinous quality persists pleasantly without drying the palate excessively.
