Nebbia

Tap to rate

Nebbia is a lightly hazy pils in the Italian manner. Herbal and floral notes lead the nose, the product of generous hopping. Protein-rich grains give it a slightly fuller, rounder body, and that softness on entry is met by a firm, clean bitterness. It finishes dry.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with herbal and floral notes born from generous hopping—a layered, garden-forward profile rather than aggressive citrus. Behind this sits a subtle cereal sweetness from the protein-rich grain bill, grounding the volatile compounds without demanding attention. The overall impression is fresh and inviting.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and rounded, a direct consequence of the fuller body derived from protein-rich malts. The mid-palate carries through with herbal bitterness that arrives as a firm, clean counterpoint rather than an assault. Complexity builds as bitterness and grain interact, finishing dry with no residual sweetness.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste is clean and moderately long, the bitterness fading to reveal a trace of herb and grain. The dryness persists without harshness, inviting another sip.

Serve at 4–7°C

Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.

Pilsner glass

The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.

Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.
