Five Points Citrus

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden in color with bright clarity and a light, fine-grained head that settles to a thin collar. The carbonation is steady and visible, characteristic of a well-conditioned pale ale. Lacing clings delicately to the glass as the beer is consumed.

◌ Aroma

Bright citrus notes dominate the nose, with distinct aromas of fresh lemon, orange zest, and grapefruit emerging from Citra and Cascade hops. Beneath the hop-forward character, gentle malty undertones provide a subtle sweetness and biscuity foundation. The overall impression is clean and inviting, with no aggressive hop oils.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with a light, approachable sweetness from well-balanced malz, followed by a zesty mid-palate where citrus hop character comes into focus. Bitterness arrives gently and refreshingly, finishing neither sharp nor lingering, making the low ABV feel intentional rather than compromised. The drinking experience remains clean and easy throughout, with no rough edges.

◑ Abgang

The finish is short to medium, drying slightly without astringency. A faint citrus note persists on the palate, inviting another sip.
