Pale Ale - New England / Hazy Regular

Score

6.75

ABV: 5.4%

IBU: 18

Ticks: 28

The main theme here is determined by Citra, Amarillo and Cascade, three whales of revolutionary beer movement. Well, it can be discussed forever, which hop variety was the most influential in the history of beer industry, but we don't plan to do that. This pale ale has all of it: old-school hopping varietals, almost classics, and modern twists like wheat and lactose for body. And these instruments play a nice tune together.

Eingetrübte goldene Farbe mit weißer Schaumkrone. Eher verhalten fruchtiger, hopfiger Geruch. Geschmacklich hopfig, die Feuchtigkeit (Citrus, etwas Grapefruit) wird durch eine trockene Bitterkeit mit Vanille etwas unterdrückt. Mittlerer Süße mit mittlerer Bitterkeit, mittlerer Körper mit spürbarer Kohlensäure.

Das gemütliche Jazz Pale Ale hat mir eigentlich ganz gut gefallen. Durch die Laktose wirken die amerikanischen Aromahopfen nicht so intensiv und bitter (wobei ich mich dann frage, warum man dann überhaupt den tollen Hopfen nimmt), Es ist sehr süffig und lässt sich schnell trinken. Es wirkt etwas unausgeglichen, aber durch einen leichten Zitruston im Abgang kommt man wieder auf die Beine.

Canned 120221. Lightly hazy pale yellow, with a nice and frothy white head. Smells clean, hoppy, some fruit, hint of old hop tea.
Mouthfeel is very soft, and lovely smooth, not watery at all. Plenty of flavour going on, but all very light and airy, making the beer highly drinkable. Taste is on the sweet side, but not heavily so. Plenty of fruityness; mango, pineapple, and some light bitter at the end.
In the end a lovely hazy pale, super easy drinking and with just the right amount of flavour.

330ml can, many thanks to djoeye for sharing. Firm white head leaving fair lacing on the glass. Close-to-clear yellow-gold body. Hop fruity smell, hints of grapefruits. Decent citrus flavours, backbone of wheat. Bitter ending notes. Pretty good. (PivotekaH7 session with djoeye and Finn, Tromsø 22.09.2020).

Spandert av djoeye. Delt med ham og Rune i H7. Gylden. Litt uklar. Høyt luftig skum. Spotlacing. Aroma av blomster & vanilje. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken som aromen. Litt uvariert. Tørr avslutning.
