Stirchley Lager

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with bright clarity and excellent transparency. A fine, white head forms readily and clings persistently to the glass walls. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating steady chains of bubbles that maintain the foam structure throughout the drink.

◌ Aroma

The dry-hop treatment imparts a pronounced but restrained aromatic profile dominated by pine and bright citrus notes. British floor malt contributes a soft, clean grain backdrop without heavy sweetness. The overall impression is crisp and inviting, with herbaceous undertones that balance the malt foundation.

◐ Taste

Entry is lean and refreshing, with subtle malt sweetness providing foundation without heaviness. The mid-palate develops the dry-hop character more fully—herbal and citric notes emerge alongside gentle bitterness. Low IBU (22) ensures the bitterness remains integrated rather than assertive, allowing the hop aromatics to take precedence over harshness.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and dry, with lingering pine and citrus notes fading into a neutral, thirst-quenching conclusion. No residual sweetness or heat; the aftertaste remains mineral and refreshing.
