Pia Mahi‘ai Honey Citrus Saison

◎ Aussehen

A pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright translucence. The head is modest but stable, forming a fine white collar with consistent lacing that clings to the glass walls. Carbonation is visibly present with a steady stream of fine bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced clove and allspice notes from the saison yeast, layered beneath vibrant citrus—fresh orange, tangerine, and lemon peel. Lemongrass adds a herbal pungency, while Big Island honey contributes subtle floral sweetness that balances the spice-forward character without dominating.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and dry with bright citrus acidity. The mid-palate develops clove and pepper from the yeast alongside orange and lime, with a subtle herbal backbone from lemongrass. Bitterness is restrained at 24 IBU, allowing the spice and citrus to lead while honey adds delicate body and mild sweetness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and moderately short, with clove and pepper lingering gently on the palate. A faint citric and herbal echo remains, leaving the mouth refreshed without any cloying residue.
