Alien Form Blood Orange

◎ Appearance

Pale gold with a light haze throughout, characteristic of the biotransformed yeast strain employed in production. The head forms modestly and disperses with gradual Schaumhaftung along the glass. Carbonation appears moderate and well-integrated, contributing to a clean, appetizing presentation.

◌ Aroma

Dominated by assertive blood orange aromas that emerge immediately from the glass, underpinned by resinous pine and subtle citrus notes. A grainy malt foundation provides earthiness beneath the fruit-forward character. The thiolised yeast biotransformation amplifies the stone fruit and tropical fruit esters, creating a complex and inviting aromatic profile.

◐ Taste

Entry brings juicy blood orange and citrus immediately to the palate, balanced against a firm but measured bitter-sweet tension. Mid-palate showcases the interplay between Cascade, Citra, Amarillo, Mosaic and Cryo-Pop hop character—piney, herbal, and zesty—with grainy malt sweetness providing counterpoint. Finish is clean and crisp, with lingering citrus and hop bitterness without harshness.

◑ Finish

Medium-length finish with persistent blood orange and gentle pine notes resolving into a dry, malty afterimage. The vegan-friendly formulation leaves no astringency or off-notes, maintaining clarity through the final moments.
