Ansbacher Lager

◎ Appearance

A brilliant gold colour, bright and clear, with fine carbonation producing a delicate white head. The beer displays excellent clarity typical of a well-crafted lager, with persistent lacing that clings to the glass as you drink.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a subtle sweetness from lager malt and Cara Gold, followed by a delicate interplay of floral and herbal notes from Mosaic, Hersbrucker and Saaz hops. The character is restrained and elegant, blending traditional Bavarian hop character with contemporary aromatics, without any aggressive or dominating notes.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a clean, subtly sweet malt foundation that carries the character of lager malt and Cara Gold through the mid-palate. A snappy, crisp bitterness emerges mid-way, driven by the noble and modern hop blend, leading to a dry and refreshing finish that remains composed and well-balanced rather than aggressive.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and fairly quick, with a lingering dry quality and a faint herbal bitterness that fades gracefully. The aftertaste remains pleasant and thirst-quenching, encouraging another sip.
