RIBA Pale Ale

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright translucence. A firm white head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. Carbonation is crisp and lively, evident in the steady stream of fine bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant citrus—grapefruit zest and orange peel dominate the profile, backed by clean American hop character. A subtle malty sweetness emerges beneath, providing gentle foundation without competing. The overall impression is fresh and inviting, with no rough or oxidative edges.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and dry, with bright citrus flavors carrying immediately across the palate. Mid-palate reveals moderate bitterness balanced by light, biscuity malz character that avoids heaviness. The finish is clean and lean, with lingering hoppy dryness that refreshes rather than fatigues.

◑ Abgang

The finish is short to medium in length, fading to a pleasant dry hoppy aftertaste with subtle citrus echoes. No residual sweetness or astringency remains.
