Steadfast

◎ Appearance

Steadfast presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a bright, translucent quality typical of the lager style. The white head forms quickly and maintains good retention, with crisp carbonation evident throughout the glass. Lacing clings to the sides with moderate persistence.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with restrained, noble Saaz character—herbal and slightly floral without aggression. A clean malt backbone emerges beneath, offering soft bread and grain notes. Fermentation is neutral and clean, allowing the hop profile and malt to sit comfortably without competing.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and straightforward, with malt sweetness providing a light foundation. The mid-palate balances soft malty body with restrained, refined Saaz bitterness; at 22 IBU the hop bite remains subtle and genteel. Fine carbonation adds lift without sharpness.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderate in length, drying gently as the Saaz character fades. A faint grain sweetness lingers briefly before a dry, refreshing conclusion.
