Pool Party

◎ Aussehen

Pool Party presents a pale golden hue with pronounced cloudiness from the suspended yeast, characteristic of the NEIPA style. The head is compact and creamy, with moderate retention that gradually recedes into a thin collar. Fine carbonation sparkles throughout the glass, contributing to the beer's lively visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with assertive hop aromatics—prominent citrus notes, particularly lemon and grapefruit, mingle with subtle tropical fruit esters that suggest peach and passionfruit. Beneath the hop-forward character lies a soft, barely perceptible Malz sweetness, while the unfiltered yeast adds a delicate, slightly earthy undertone without dominating the overall impression.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens crisp and light, with immediate hop bitterness balanced by a whisper of Malz residue that prevents harshness. Mid-palate shows cohesive citrus and stone fruit character, while the 50 IBU restrain bitterness to a measured, clean finish rather than an aggressive bite. The low 3.5% ABV keeps the beer deft and sessionable, with no warming alcohol sensations.

◑ Abgang

The finish dries quickly and cleanly, with lingering citrus oil and a faint hop resin bite that fades within seconds. No cloying sweetness or harsh tannin remains—only a refreshing, slightly peppery aftertaste that invites another sip.
