Afterglow

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright luminosity. A dense, creamy head forms on the pour and holds with fine, persistent lacing that clings to the glass. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, lending visual vibrancy to the beer.

◌ Aroma

The nose is immediately dominated by tropical stone fruit—ripe mango, pineapple, and coconut leap forward with candied sweetness. Beneath the fruit sits a pronounced resinous undertone from the Strata, Azacca, and Simcoe hops, grounding the aromatics with herbal and piney notes. A faint cereal whisper from the oat and wheat adjuncts completes the bouquet.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with lush, juicy tropical flavors—mango and pineapple deliver immediate sweetness before a smooth, oat-forward body rounds out the mid-palate. The resinous backbone emerges distinctly, carrying a clean bittering character that builds steadily without harshness. Bitterness remains crisp and focused, lingering pleasantly without overwhelming the fruit.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and lingering, with the crisp bitterness extending well into the aftertaste. Residual tropical notes fade gradually, leaving behind a pleasant resinous grip that invites another sip.
