Hello, My Name Is Human
Xül Beer Co.

 

Month-old can poured into a belcher glass. Really outstanding beer for 5.7%.

Pale yellow-gold body, fully opaque but not murky or turbid, with almost-translucent edges. Moderate initial head of fizzy white foam that drops quickly. Some sticky spots of lacing here and there down the glass.

Fantastic aroma for a beer of this size (easily the best aspect of the experience). Loads of citrus and tropical fruit balanced by some pleasant grassiness and weediness. Very juicy and fruity and highly appealing, even if it doesn't knock your hair back like many bigger DDH hazies.

Taste profile isn't nearly as big but what's there is very tasty: semi-sweet orange, mango, guava, and grapefruit. A pleasant starchy and herbal grassiness. Some berries and green grape in the mix. Incredibly drinkable and light. Could easily pound a few of these in the pool or on the water.

Substantial mouthfeel with perfect carbonation and a silky smoothness. Nice coating on the tongue and teeth but still light and not chewy or sticky at all.

Not going to keep up with some of Xul's bigger hazies, but this is an outstanding 5.7% hazy pale ale.
