Fort Point Pale Ale

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent head that clings to the glass in thin lacing. Bright carbonation is evident, lending the beer a lively, inviting visual presence typical of well-made American pale ales.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by fresh citrus and tropical stone fruit—predominantly peach with underlying notes of pineapple and mango from the Citra and Columbus hops. A light, clean malted grain base supports the hop character without obstruction, creating an aromatic profile that is both inviting and straightforward.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with crisp, light malted sweetness before giving way to prominent hop-driven citrus and fruit notes—pineapple and mango develop on the mid-palate. A soft, wheated mouthfeel provides roundness, while gentle bitterness and a clean, dry finish prevent any sense of heaviness or cloying sweetness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and dry, with lingering citrus notes that fade gracefully. No harsh edges or residual sweetness persist.
