Auric

◎ Aussehen

Pale gold in colour with excellent clarity, presenting a bright, luminous character in the glass. The head rises with modest density and persists with fine, delicate lacing that clings to the sides. Carbonation is brisk and visible, sustaining a light, effervescent quality throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by a pronounced grapefruit character, lifted by the synergy of Citra and Amarillo hops. Dried pine needles and lemon zest emerge beneath, with a subtle herbaceous backbone and a wisp of resinous intensity. The malt base recedes appropriately, allowing the hop profile to command the sensory experience.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and citrus-forward, with bright fruit rind flavours layering across the mid-palate. A balanced bitterness unfolds—neither aggressive nor timid—grounded in pine and herbal notes that persist without overwhelming the lower alcohol context. The body remains lean and quenching, driven by precise hopping rather than malt sweetness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and enveloping, with the dryness extending well into the aftertaste. Lemon and grapefruit notes linger alongside a subtle resinous texture, leaving the mouth refreshed and reaching for another sip.
