Sonoma encapsulates what we love at Track. A refreshing, sessionable, hazy pale ale to be shared, which shows our love for hops & the pursuit of pale perfection. With a simple malt base & hopped generously with Mosaic, Centennial & Citra it bursts forth with resinous notes of sticky mandarin and grapefruit. It finishes crisp & clean with a soft, pithy bitterness.

Pours a hazy yellow with fluffy head.

Smell is fruity, juicy, crisp and a bit grassy. Notes of citrus, apricot and peach.

Taste is fruity and juicy, a bit sweet and grassy and very clean and crisp. Notes of citrus, citrus peel, peach, melon and lemongrass. Soft bitterness and ridiculously easy to drink.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft and well carbonated.

A great low ABV pale ale, designed to drink all day, but with so much flavor and character.

Sample on tap at Track tasting, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Pale yellow colour, moderate white head. Nice aroma of citrus and "spicy" hops, a hint of tropical fruits too. Light bodied, but not bad for a 3.8% beer. Grapefruity dry flavour, distinctly bitter finish.

440ml can from Wee Beer Shop, Glasgow (£4.30):
Very light golden & slightly hazy with a thin surface lacing with more on the sides. The nose is mainly citrus & melon with faint spice & dry hops with lemongrass & a floral finish. The taste is quite sharp & dry with grapefruit, faint tropical fruits & grassy hops. It seems stronger than 3.7% without being overly pronounced; very sessionable & balanced.

a very light and tasty pale ale, modern for something english, dry hoppy and clean, extra pale in color, real light in body and alcohol, and bitterness too, all making it a real easy drinker. the hops seem nice and fresh in here, my first beer from track. hops are juicy forward with a ton of citrus, almost a cryo hop character in that they start really early in this. lemons and tangerines or clementines or something, a hint of lemongrass and that herbal freshness to it. the grain seems real light to me, wheaty and raw, simple and earthy, a nice base for this that is hardly english at all, no toasted or sweeter grains, just a dry cereal base. on top of that, i dont taste much yeast here, definitely more of a north american pale type, aside from the totally sessionable abv. the hops are clean, not oily or slick or anything, no overdone vegetal element, and without much bitterness there really isnt any linger after the swallow. flavorful and tasty beer, i like hoppy beer at this real low strength, and wish we could do a little more of that here in the states. nice beer this time of year!
