Have You Ever Been Yellow

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden color with a hazy, turbid body characteristic of the New England IPA style. The beer presents a thick, creamy head that clings persistently to the glass, leaving broad bands of lacing with each sip. Fine carbonation creates an inviting, soft visual presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose is immediately dominated by hoppy, floral, and herbaceous notes from the Vista hop blend, layered with pronounced tropical fruit aromas—pineapple, mango, and stone fruit character. Citrus notes of grapefruit and lime emerge on closer inspection, while subtle wheat malt contributes a soft, bready undertone that grounds the aromatic profile.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with crisp, juicy fruit notes—grapefruit juice and ripe mango dominate the mid-palate, supported by a light, dry body that prevents any heaviness. Bitterness is restrained at 9 IBU, offering gentle hop resin and herbal spice rather than aggressive bite. The finish transitions smoothly, with the hop profile lingering into a clean, refreshing aftertaste.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and medium-length, with tropical and citrus notes gradually fading into a dry, slightly herbaceous aftertaste. The low bitterness allows the fruit character to persist without any harsh residue.
