Deschutes Mirror Pond Pale Ale

Kühl genug, um das Hopfenaroma zu schärfen ohne den Gaumen zu betäuben. Ca. 7–9°C hält das Zitrus- und Kiefernaroma lebendig ohne die Bitterkeitsdefinition zu verlieren.

Der Klassiker — vielseitig, angenehm zu halten und hält das Bier kühl. Kein Schnickschnack: nur das Bier.

◎ Aussehen

Mirror Pond presents a brilliant golden amber hue with excellent clarity and bright visual appeal. A white, creamy head forms with good retention, and the carbonation appears lively with a steady stream of fine bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by fresh pine and citrus hop character with subtle herbal undertones, characteristic of classic American pale ales. Gentle caramel malt sweetness provides a welcoming foundation without overshadowing the aromatic hop profile.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with balanced caramel malt sweetness that transitions smoothly into a crisp, hoppy mid-palate with pronounced pine and herbal notes. The bitterness arrives with a moderate hoppy bite, providing definition without aggression, leading to a clean, dry finish.

◑ Abgang

The finish is notably clean and dry with lingering pine and herbal hop notes that fade gracefully. No residual sweetness remains, leaving a refreshing, approachable aftertaste that invites another sip.
