Hardywood Park Hardywood Singel
What the brewers say
“Unfiltered and unpasteurized, Hardywood Singel is sunshine golden with a fluffy white head and a veil of Belgian ale yeast. A delicate body ushers tropical fruit esters into perfect balance with spicy hops aromatics. The finish is dry.”
What our panel thought
Aroma: “Strong citrus (orange, tangerine, lemon) up front with notes of white grape and pear and sweetness. Some Pilsner with light bread and biscuit sit behind with some slight hops-spice character.”
Flavor: “ Balance between citrus character and some spicy herbal notes. Fruit comes through as orange, lemon, a bit of pear, and white grape. Herbal notes add a bit of spice. Some toast. Slight bitterness, but not overpowering, and balanced with the taste. Nice dry finish and medium-high carbonation.”
Overall: “Enjoyable balance between the fruit notes and the spice character with a nice body to back it up and a nice malt sweetness.”
