Sonoma AF

◎ Aussehen

A pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright, inviting color that catches the light distinctly. The head forms readily and holds with fine carbonation visible as a steady stream of delicate bubbles, demonstrating good structural integrity for an alcohol-free pale ale.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant citrus notes—prominent grapefruit pith and orange zest from the Citra and Mosaic hop pairing create an immediately recognizable profile. Underlying fruitiness supports the hop character without any thin or wispy quality, suggesting careful brewing balance despite the low alcohol content.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens crisp and refreshing, delivering the promised citrus character with genuine hop bitterness that remains balanced rather than sharp. Mid-palate maintains good body for the category, with the fruity-hoppy interplay holding steady through to a clean, dry conclusion that invites the next sip.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and moderately brief, ending with a lingering citrus note and gentle hop dryness. No cloying sweetness or astringency mars the conclusion, leaving a pleasant, refreshing aftertaste.
