Hop Stalker

◎ Aussehen

Hop Stalker presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright transparency. The head builds with vigor and clings to the glass with defined lacing, while fine carbonation rises steadily throughout the body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with dank citrus and pine, layered and inviting. Grapefruit zest and grassy herbaceousness emerge alongside a resinous quality, creating a complex herbal-citric profile that speaks to the fresh-hop character of Simcoe, Strata, Mosaic and Citra.

◐ Geschmack

Entry brings grapefruit and lemon zest forward with clean malt support from pale and crystal malts. Mid-palate develops earthy undertones and a grassy quality, while a pronounced bitterness builds steadily toward the swallow. The 77 IBU strike a balance—assertive yet integrated within the hop-forward framework.

◑ Abgang

The finish settles into a lingering pine-and-citrus-rind bitterness that persists cleanly without harshness. Aftertaste remains dry and hoppy, with a slight resinous edge that fades gradually.
