Resin

◎ Aussehen

Resin presents a pale golden hue with notably low clarity—the unfiltered character shows suspended particles and a soft haze throughout. The head forms quickly with modest retention, settling to a thin collar with restrained lacing on the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with aggressive resinous and dank notes from Chinook and Centennial hops, layered with pronounced pine and woody character. Secondary waves reveal subtle citrus and light fruity undertones, while the alcohol warmth sits cleanly beneath without dominating the bouquet.

◐ Geschmack

Entry brings immediate hop candy sweetness followed by a wave of piney bitterness that builds steadily across the palate. The 103 IBU foundation persists without harshness, supported by clean malt structure that allows the hop complexity to remain central. Mid-palate shows layered hop character—resin, pine, and subtle citrus—while maintaining surprising drinkability for a 9.1% beer.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and persistent, with resinous and bitter notes lingering for several minutes. No cloying sweetness or boozy warmth intrudes; the aftertaste remains focused on pine and herbal character.
