Jejune is a word that cannot be clearly assigned to any language. It sounds French but comes from Latin and is used in the English language. The meaning is equally mysterious and elusive. Jejune can mean boring and insignificant, as well as childish or nutritious. None of the meanings actually apply to the beer of the same name from Fuerst Wiacek: The dry-hopped India Pale Ale is absolutely not bland or boring, with its stately 6.8% alcohol content it is really not childish or playful and thanks to a whole lot of Mosaic and Simcoe hops, the beer certainly has some nutritional value.
Maybe the brewers just liked the word itself. In any case, we like the beer behind it, which appears in the glass in a pale gold robe. A composition of green hops, tropical fruit, spicy pine resin and light malt rises from the densely pored white crown. The first sip follows the olfactory first impression and ensnares the palate with classic IPA aromas. Notes of freshly baked biscuits represent the malt while the hops express themselves in big fruity notes. The trained tongue can taste grapefruit, lime zest, passion fruit and pineapple. A complementary touch of pine resin and a delicate bitterness harmoniously round off the drinking experience.
