Little Juno by Volstead Brewing Company is a hazy pale ale that delivers an intense burst of citrus and tropical fruit flavors. The aroma is a captivating blend of passionfruit, pineapple, and grapefruit, with hints of piney hops and a sweet malt backbone. Subtle undertones of lime and white grapes add depth and complexity to the overall profile. On the palate, this beer is juicy and fruity, with ripe passionfruit, pineapple, and citrus flavors taking center stage. The light malt sweetness provides a balanced counterpoint, while a hint of bitterness adds a refreshing acidity that cuts through the sweetness. The smooth, creamy mouthfeel and medium body make this a highly drinkable and approachable brew. The finish is long and lingering, with persistent tropical fruit and piney hop notes. The unfiltered nature of the beer gives it a hazy appearance, showcasing the bright and juicy flavors of the New Zealand hops used in its creation. With a moderate alcohol content of 5.6%, Little Juno is a well-balanced and easy-to-enjoy pale ale that's perfect for pairing with seafood dishes, salads, grilled chicken, spicy Asian cuisine, and mild cheeses.
