Bonsai – Black Pine

◎ Aussehen

Clear golden hue with bright transparency and lively effervescence. A pillowy white head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. The carbonation is crisp and well-integrated throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe pineapple and sweet orange zest, layered with grapefruit notes and a subtle herbaceous pine undertone. The Pacific Northwest hop trio—Idaho 7, Simcoe, and Citra—delivers a clean, fruit-forward character without astringency. Malt support remains restrained, allowing citrus and stone fruit to dominate.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and balanced, with pineapple and cantaloupe sweetness developing across the mid-palate. A resinous hop layer emerges mid-sip, adding texture and depth without overshadowing the fruit. The finish transitions to a firm, lingering bitterness that is dry and mineral-edged, characteristic of a well-attenuated double IPA.

◑ Abgang

Bitterness carries through to the end with notable persistence, leaving a clean, slightly dry aftertaste. The medium-light body prevents any heaviness, allowing the resinous bite to linger gracefully.

Serviertemperatur 8–11°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.

Die geschwungene Form konzentriert Hopfenaromen und hält den Schaum. Unverzichtbar für aromatische Ales und IPAs, bei denen die Nase die halbe Erfahrung ist.
