Farbenkugel
A pale lager built on German lines, with the hop character deliberately leafy. Noble varieties give herbal, grassy and lightly floral notes with a spiced edge, set against a bready malt base carrying a touch of honey and toasted grain. The bitterness is clean and medium, never resinous. The body is moderate, the finish dry, and the leafy hop note lingers longest of anything in the glass.
