Pucker Up

◎ Aussehen

Bright pink body with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass in delicate lace. The color derives entirely from the cranberry, pomegranate, rosehip, and hibiscus adjuncts, creating a visually striking pale ale. Carbonation appears moderate and well-integrated.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with tart red berry—cranberry and pomegranate dominate—layered with floral and herbal notes from hibiscus and rosehip that evoke dried tea leaves. Wheat adds a soft, grain-forward undertone without any funky or wild character. The overall impression is clean and refreshing, with no hop bitterness to complicate the fruit-forward profile.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and tart, driven by clean lactic acidity rather than funky fermentation notes. The mid-palate develops red-berry tartness with a faint tea-like floral edge; wheat in the grist provides a soft, rounded mouthfeel that prevents harshness. Finish is purely tart with a small residual sweetness balancing the acidity, and zero bittering hops means no IBU-driven dryness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and tart, with berry acidity lingering cleanly on the palate. A whisper of residual sweetness prevents the beer from becoming one-dimensional, and the overall aftertaste remains refreshing and food-friendly.
