Calypso

◎ Aussehen

Calypso presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine, white head that settles to a delicate collar. The carbonation is moderate and even, creating a gentle visual texture characteristic of a traditional cask pale ale. Lacing clings lightly to the glass as you drink.

◌ Aroma

The nose is led by fresh stone fruit — ripe pear and apple — with subtle tropical undertones from the American Calypso hops. A light maltiness provides a soft backdrop without dominating. The overall character is clean and inviting, with no harsh alcohol or solvent notes despite the ale yeast fermentation.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and refreshing, with the fruity hop character immediately apparent on the mid-palate alongside a gentle malt body. Bitterness arrives moderate and measured at 35 IBU, providing balance without assertiveness. The low 3.4% ABV keeps the beer exceptionally drinkable, with no warming or heaviness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and brief, with the stone fruit character fading to a soft, dry aftertaste. Residual hop bitterness lingers gently without astringency, inviting another sip.
