Fresh Hop Timbo

◎ Aussehen

Pale straw gold with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent head that clings to the glass with delicate lacing. The carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a fine bead that rises steadily. The color sits at the lighter end of the pilsner spectrum, characteristic of its crisp West Coast interpretation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus—orange zest and pink grapefruit—layered over tropical mango notes from the cryo Citra and Mosaic hops. A green, resinous edge rises beneath the fruit, grounding the profile in fresh herbal character. The clean pale malt base provides a subtle biscuity undertone that frames without competing.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens clean and snappy, with immediate juicy citrus and stone fruit following from the fresh hops. Mid-palate carries weight without heaviness, the pale malt providing a dry, crisp foundation that allows the tropical and herbal hop notes to shine. Bitterness is measured at 35 IBU—present and focused rather than aggressive, with a resinous bite that lingers gently.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and snappy, cutting cleanly across the palate without lingering sweetness. A subtle resinous note persists briefly in the aftertaste, leaving the mouth primed for the next sip.
