Karuizawa Craft Saurus Pale Ale Aroma and Taste

Karuizawa Craft SaurusĀ Pale Ale poured out a light hazy orange colour with a fluffy white head on top that clung to the side of the glass. It had a lemony and grapefruit aroma with a slight biscuit nose coming through too. For a basic American pale ale,Ā Karuizawa Craft SaurusĀ Pale Ale was more hop-forward than I was expecting but the hops were not overpowering nor were they verging on soapy, as sometimes is the case.

The initial bitterness was sharp but faded fast to leave a lemon and grapefruit twang behind. Some subtle flavours of pine were present onceĀ Karuizawa Craft Saurus had warmed up but by that point the malts had also become more pronounced as well. At 5%,Ā Karuizawa Craft SaurusĀ Pale Ale isnā€™t a going to get you drunk quickly, but it is a refreshing beer that could easily be consumed quickly without realising. It finished off with lingering citrus flavours.
