So Long New York

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with a distinctly hazy, opaque character typical of the style. A generous, stable head forms and clings to the glass with fine lacing as the beer settles. Fine carbonation creates a soft, pillowy appearance that invites the eye.

◌ Aroma

Stone fruit and tropical character dominates the nose, with bright peach and apricot leading, followed by white grape and gooseberry notes. The Nelson Sauvin and Rakau hops deliver a complex, layered profile without sharp edges. Soft maltiness from oat and wheat supports the fruity expression without dominating.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with soft, creamy malt texture from the wheat and oat bill, carrying through peach and tropical fruit into the mid-palate. Bitterness integrates cleanly at 50 IBUs, lingering as a gentle dry finish without astringency. The beer drinks refreshingly light despite its full flavour, with a balanced sweetness that never cloys.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and moderately long, with stone fruit and a whisper of white wine-like grip from the gooseberry character persisting on the palate. Bitterness fades gracefully, leaving a clean, thirst-quenching aftertaste.
