Rock Shandy Pale Ale

◎ Aussehen

Rock Shandy pours a pale golden hue with a slight haze that catches the light softly. The head forms moderately and settles to a thin ring of fine, persistent lacing. Carbonation appears gentle, with fine bubbles rising steadily through the cloudy body.

◌ Aroma

Fresh orange peel dominates the nose, bright and zesty from the real citrus additions. Stone fruit undertones from Mandarina Bavaria and Amarillo emerge beneath, with hints of candied lemon zest. A soft, clean malt base supports without asserting itself, allowing the fruit adjuncts to lead.

◐ Geschmack

Bittersweet orange enters first, transitioning to a pronounced lemon character mid-palate that balances sweetness with tartness. The medium bitterness (40 IBU) is moderate and approachable, never aggressive. Stone fruit character from the noble hop varieties threads through, adding roundness without muddying the citrus clarity.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and moderately lingering, with lemon bite persisting on the palate. A gentle drying sensation closes the experience without harshness, leaving residual fruit character in memory.
