Tap to rate

Malty, with caramel, a fine bitterness and light woody tones. A naturally cloudy, amber-coloured bottom-fermented lager at 5.0% ABV, brewed from water, barley malt, hops and yeast and served at 5 °C. It comes from Schaffhausen, where the brewery's beer was first tapped in the old-town tavern Falken in 1799 and where brewing has gone on ever since.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Amber naturtrüb

◎ Appearance

A naturally cloudy amber lager with a warm, honey-toned hue characteristic of the style. The suspended yeast creates a soft, hazy veil throughout the body, while a modest white head forms with gentle retention and fine lacing. Moderate carbonation produces small, persistent bubbles that rise deliberately through the turbid matrix.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with rounded malt character—caramel sweetness and subtle breadiness predominate. Beneath lies a restrained woody tone, likely from traditional hop selection, alongside delicate herbal notes. The yeast expression is clean and neutral, allowing the malt and gentle hop aromatics to remain in focus.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with soft malt sweetness and caramel depth, creating a full but not cloying mouthfeel. A fine bitterness emerges in the mid-palate—measured at 22 IBU—without aggressive edge, complemented by faint woody character that echoes the hop profile. The finish remains dry and clean, with the sweetness gradually receding.
