Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Caesar AF

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass as you drink. The carbonation is lively and well-integrated, generating a steady stream of small bubbles that maintain good foam structure. Light transmission reveals a clean, bright character typical of quality lagers.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus and tropical fruit notes—lime zest, passionfruit, and subtle stone fruit—lifted by Cascade, Azacca, and Citra hops working in harmony. Beneath the hop-forward aromatics lies a delicate floral character with a whisper of fresh bread from the torrefied barley and dextrin malt base. The overall impression is clean and inviting, with no solvent or yeasty undertones.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and clean, with immediate citrus and tropical fruit flavors that mirror the aroma. The mid-palate delivers a pleasant hop bitterness (30 IBU) balanced by light malt sweetness from the dextrin addition, which lends a subtle breadiness without heaviness. The finish remains dry and refreshing, with the bitterness tapering gradually into a lingering citrus and floral note.
