Sofa Sour: Pink Lemonade

◎ Aussehen

A pale, translucent pink hue dominates the glass, reminiscent of fresh-pressed lemonade. The head forms quickly and dissipates with moderate speed, leaving delicate strands of lacing along the glass. High carbonation creates a persistent stream of fine bubbles from base to surface.

◌ Aroma

Lemon peel dominates the nose with a sharp, candied quality, supported by a soft berry undertone that suggests strawberry or raspberry. The grain base provides a clean, neutral backdrop without yeasty or funky notes. Acidity is immediately apparent but not aggressive on the nose alone.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is bright and lip-puckering, with assertive acidity that frames a tart berry sweetness at the mid-palate. The grainy malt foundation prevents the sourness from becoming one-dimensional, offering subtle body and stability. Hop bitterness remains minimal, allowing the fruit and acid interplay to occupy the entire palate.

◑ Abgang

The finish arrives quickly and cleanly, leaving a dry, tart impression that fades within seconds. A light berry echo lingers momentarily before the palate returns to neutrality.
