Columbus Pils

◎ Appearance

A bright golden pour with excellent clarity defines the visual character. The fluffy white head sits generous and stable, displaying fine Schaumkleiden that persist through the first third of the glass. Carbonation is evident and lively, appropriate to the style.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with freshly cut flowers and citrus zest, underpinned by the classic spice and herbal character of Tettnang and Saphir noble hops. The Pilsner malt provides a clean, slightly sweet foundation without dominance. Fermentation is neutral and crisp, allowing the hop aromatics to lead.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with citrus notes and a light malty sweetness in balance. The mid-palate showcases the signature Edelhopfen character—herbal, slightly peppery—while maintaining brightness and cleanness throughout. Bitterness is moderate at 35 IBU, integrated rather than sharp, finishing dry.

◑ Finish

The finish is short to medium, clean and refreshing with a subtle noble-hop bitterness that fades gracefully. No residual sweetness or harsh edges remain.
