Faust Export

Tap to rate

A rounded malt aroma with grain on the nose; easy-drinking, full-bodied, soft and spicy in the mouth. Straw-gold in the glass, bottom-fermented. At 12.8 percent original gravity and 5.3 percent ABV it carries more body than the pale colour suggests. The brewery lets its beers mature six weeks in cold cellars, longer than large breweries usually do.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Faust Export

◎ Appearance

Straw-gold in colour, bright and clear with fine carbonation throughout. The head forms readily and persists with delicate lacing that clings to the glass as the beer is consumed. The pale hue belies the substantial body beneath—a hallmark of the Export style.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a rounded Malz character, grain-forward and inviting without harshness. Soft spice notes emerge behind the malt foundation, suggesting clean fermentation by bottom-fermenting yeast. The profile remains straightforward and unpretentious, with no aggressive hop presence to distract.

◐ Taste

The palate is full-bodied and smooth, delivering breadiness that complements the malt backbone. Moderate bitterness from noble hops sits comfortably at 22 IBU, never dominating. Subtle sweetness and a touch of crisp minerality balance the mid-palate, while six weeks of cold conditioning has refined the beer into a polished, easy-drinking whole.
