Pualani

◎ Aussehen

Pualani presents a luminous pale gold to straw color, achieved through the prominent use of rosehips and hibiscus. The beer shows excellent clarity with a fine, delicate white head that exhibits moderate lacing. Carbonation is present but restrained, creating a soft, inviting visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright hibiscus florality, immediately followed by distinct rosehip tartness and layered berry notes—raspberry and strawberry are particularly evident. A light, wispy yeast character from the house strain provides subtle background complexity without overwhelming the delicate fruit and floral profile. The aroma is clean and refreshing, with no sharp vinegar notes.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and immediately tart, with the sour character building gently across the mid-palate. Berry and hibiscus flavors integrate seamlessly, creating a complex fruity sweetness that balances the acidity—neither harsh nor candied. At just 6 IBU, bitterness is virtually absent; instead, the finish is driven by the interplay of tart fruit and subtle floral notes, with the low alcohol providing an almost delicate mouthfeel.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and crisp, with the tartness lingering pleasantly without astringency. The aftertaste carries fading berry and hibiscus notes, leaving a refreshing, nearly thirst-quenching sensation.
