June 2024.
44 cl can (€7, from the beer shop fridge).
It is a West Coast India Pale Ale with added rye in addition to Pils, Golden Promise and Cara malts. The yeast is an American Ale.
For hops, Master Brewer Marco Valeriano opted for New Zealanders Nelson Sauvin and Nectaron.
Poured is a beautiful golden colour, very clean, practically transparent (except for a very light haze).
The aromas of ripe citrus fruits and yellow peach are amplified.
Nice foam cap of medium/light consistency which still acts as a cap for the beer.
In the mouth, a medium-bodied but soft beer supported by a fairly low but adequate carbonation.
In the mouth the first taste that comes to mind is that of lemon/lemon peel, followed by other citrus notes (grapefruit, clementine juice) and summer fruit (yellow peach, plum)... But the main taste is that which brings me back to lemon.
The finish is dry, with a light bitter note followed by a cereal background (rye) that dampens it, leaving the whole stage for the citrus taste on the palate.
Very tasty, soft and not very bitter, with an understandable contribution from the rye in terms of the "velvety" drink and the bitterness dampened by a light waxy final note.
