Where The Light Goes

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden-yellow with a soft haze throughout, typical of the style. The head is thick and creamy, with good retention and fine Schaumkleiden clinging to the glass as you drink. Carbonation appears lively but well-integrated, creating a pillowy mouthfeel rather than sharp effervescence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright tropical fruit—stone fruit and citrus pith from Galaxy and Nelson Sauvin hops, layered with subtle passion fruit and pineapple from the Cryo varieties. Beneath lies a soft, clean Malz foundation that doesn't dominate; the Edelhopfen character is forward and juicy without harshness or green notes.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters soft and creamy, with juicy tropical notes and subtle citrus zest rolling across the tongue. Mid-palate builds a moderate bitterness (50 IBU) that feels integrated rather than sharp, balanced by a slight sweetness from the Malz backbone. At 8.6% ABV, there's warmth in the finish without alcohol burn, and the overall impression remains refreshing and drinkable despite the strength.

◑ Abgang

The finish is medium in length, fading with lingering citrus and a subtle hoppy dry note. A touch of warmth remains on the palate, but no harsh alcohol or oxidative edge.
