Klosterbryg

Tap to rate

Klosterbryg pours a deep golden and smells of soft malt with a discreet hop aroma. It tastes full-bodied and harmonious, with a pleasant malty sweetness balanced by a soft, elegant hop bitterness, and it ends in a long, rounded finish. Pilsner, wheat and caramel malt build the malt profile, Fuggles, Styrian Goldings and Perle supply the hops, and unrefined cane sugar goes into the brew.

◌ Aroma

The nose reveals a soft, clean malt foundation with subtle caramel undertones from the grain bill. Noble hop varieties contribute a discreet, refined floral and herbal character that complements rather than dominates the aromatic profile.

◐ Taste

The palate enters full-bodied and malty, with a pleasant sweetness from the Pilsner, wheat, and caramel malts balanced by the Fuggles, Styrian Goldings, and Perle hops. The unrefined cane sugar contributes to a smooth, harmonious mid-palate, while the bitterness remains gentle and elegant rather than assertive, creating a well-integrated whole.
