The Poison

◎ Aussehen

The Poison presents a bright amber hue with excellent clarity and a pale golden sheen. A dense, creamy head forms on the pour with good initial retention, gradually settling into a thin persistent collar. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a fine bead throughout the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with assertive tropical stone fruit—ripe pineapple and mango—layered beneath bright citrus zest and pine resin. Herbal and piney notes emerge on deeper inhalation, backed by a clean malt base that doesn't compete. A slight floral hop character frames the composition without overwhelming the fruit-forward character.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and juicy, with tropical fruit sweetness—mango and pineapple—immediately present on the palate. Mid-palate builds a robust piney bitterness and resinous hop character that steadies the fruit, creating a structured interplay between sweetness and bite. The finish layers lingering citrus and pine with a dry, bitter edge that persists without harshness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and dry, with pine and citrus lingering prominently and a pleasant resinous grip on the palate. Bitterness fades gradually, leaving a clean, mouth-watering aftertaste.
