Falcon Smash is a delicious beer that combines the best of both worlds – hop and yeast character. As an expert sommelier and brewer, I can tell you that this beer is brewed using a softer grist of North American 2 Row and Malted Wheat. This choice of grains creates a smooth and balanced base for the beer.
The fermentation process is equally important in creating the unique flavors of Falcon Smash. It is fermented with our expressive house ale yeast, which adds its own distinctive character to the beer. This yeast is known for producing fruity and estery flavors, which complement the hop profile of the beer.
Speaking of hops, Falcon Smash is dry hopped with a focus on the Falconers Flight hop blend. This particular hop blend is known for its bright citrus, orange, pine marmalade, and stone fruit flavors. These hop flavors come together beautifully in Falcon Smash, creating a harmonious and balanced taste experience.
When you take a sip of Falcon Smash, you can expect to be greeted with a burst of citrusy and fruity flavors. The bright citrus notes really shine through, with hints of orange and stone fruit adding depth to the overall flavor profile. The pine marmalade flavor adds a touch of resinous bitterness, balancing out the sweetness from the malt.
One of the things I love about Falcon Smash is its ability to showcase the hop and yeast character in perfect harmony. The expressive house ale yeast enhances the hop flavors, while the hops bring out the best in the yeast. It's a beautiful dance of flavors that keeps your taste buds engaged and wanting more.
I have personally enjoyed Falcon Smash on many occasions, and each time it has impressed me with its well-balanced hop and yeast character. Whether you're a hop lover or a fan of fruity and estery flavors, this beer has something to offer.
