Pray for Snow

◎ Appearance

Pray for Snow presents a dark copper body with subtle reddish undertones, suggesting careful kilning of the base malts. A light tan head forms with moderate retention and fine Schaumkleiden along the glass. The beer displays good clarity, allowing the warm copper hues to shine through.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by a pronounced malty character with distinct Munich malt notes—toasty and slightly bread-like. Beneath this foundation, subtle caramel and toffee sweetness emerge, layered with a spicy, peppery quality from Noble hops that adds complexity and restraint to the overall bouquet.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with rich malted grain and a medium body that carries the initial sweetness gracefully. Mid-palate introduces gentle roasty notes and toffee depth, balanced by clean spicy hop bitterness from the Noble varieties. The 35 IBU provides structure without overwhelming, while a subtle alcohol warmth at 7.6% ABV builds toward the finish.

◑ Finish

The finish is moderately dry with lingering spice and a faint roasted character that persists cleanly. Warmth from the elevated ABV remains present without harshness, tapering gradually into the aftertaste.
