🌍 Germany · Pale Lager · One of 108 Pale Lagers in hopIQ

Feldschlößchen Schlankes is a highly attenuated pale beer brewed from only 9.5 °P original gravity to 4.9 %. The yeast ferments almost all of the malt sugar, so very little residual extract remains, and retail listings carry it as a Dresden pils. The result tastes lean and dry: light grainy malt, a crisp, slightly herbal hop bitterness and a short, clean finish without any sweetness. It is lighter in body than the Pilsner despite the same strength.

Taste

Entry is lean and dry, with minimal malt sweetness owing to the high degree of attenuation. The mid-palate reveals a subtle grainy foundation, quickly overtaken by a crisp, slightly herbal hop bitterness that persists without harshness. Body remains light despite the 4.9% strength, emphasizing dryness throughout.
