I Want to Believe

◎ Aussehen

I Want to Believe presents a deep golden amber with pronounced haze and excellent brightness despite its cloudiness. The off-white head is generous and persistent, clinging to the glass with fine lacing as you drink. Carbonation appears lively and well-integrated throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose is immediately dominated by ripe tropical stone fruit—mango and passionfruit leap forward with candied intensity. Beneath this fruit-forward character sits a resinous, dank earthiness that grounds the profile, accompanied by bright citrus zest. The overall impression is one of restrained but unmistakable hop expression.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with juicy stone fruit and candied citrus peel, delivering a full-bodied, lush mouthfeel that speaks to solid grain backbone. Moderate bitterness arrives mid-palate and holds steady without becoming harsh, balancing the sweetness and fruit character effectively. The resinous earthiness threads throughout, keeping the sweetness honest.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and lingering, with pleasant resinous warmth that echoes the hop profile without overstaying its welcome. A subtle bittering note persists alongside the fading fruit character.
