Description
Like so many enthusiastic beer seekers, the creators of Fidens found themselves traveling all over to discover new beers and exciting breweries. As their love of craft beer and the brewing process grew they started on a small rig in the garage. Over time they brought their talents together and established the Fidens Brand at the end of 2019. The idea was simple, to open a small brewery locally where they would offer a quality product like those in their travels.

Can (5/4/26) from the brewery. Opaque banana-smoothie yellow, nice sparkle, thin head with good retention, light lacing. Aroma is strong citrus, lesser white grape over hint of herb, biscuit background. Taste is strong citrus over white grape with some alcohol (lessens as warms). Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation, alcohol astringency and dry, crisp, yeasty finish. Fidens is usually so good at covering up alcohol, even when double digits. Not quite on this one.

Pours a hazy, orange-peach, with smallish head. Aroma is a tad muted, but with citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors more pronounced, citrus and tropical fruit, with light underlying sweetness (there's a bit of orange sherbet in there!). Soft, smooth mouthfeel. ABV is well-hidden in both aroma and flavor. Mild level of hop bitterness in the finish. This is outstanding beer!

Can (4/27/26) from the brewery. Opaque, banana-smoothie yellow, nice sparkle, thin head quickly fading to ring, trace lacing. Aroma is strong passion fruit, white grape, herb. Taste mirrors aroma w/addition of bready malt. Smooth, silky, frothy texture, average carbonation, alcohol well hidden, fairly dry finish as taste. Got to the Nelson before it went full-on herbal. Nice.
