Draught Bass

◎ Appearance

Draught Bass presents a deep amber to copper hue, transparent and bright under light. The head forms readily and clings to the glass with steady retention, displaying fine Schaumkleiden down the sides. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, lending a soft effervescence without excessive aggression.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced malt character, displaying toasted grain and a distinctive nutty undertone that anchors the profile. Soft fruity esters emerge—suggestions of orchard fruit and dried apricot—while a gentle herbal spice from the Edelhopfen provides subtle backbone without dominating the bouquet.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and malty, with caramel sweetness establishing itself on the mid-palate before a restrained bitterness emerges cleanly. The nutty character persists throughout, balancing the residual sweetness with pleasant earthiness. Body is light to medium, allowing the malt and noble hop character to speak without heaviness.

◑ Finish

The finish is bittersweet and medium in length, fading gracefully into a dry, slightly astringent aftertaste. The nutty note lingers gently, leaving the palate refreshed rather than fatigued.
