Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Flag Spéciale Algérie
◎ Appearance
Pale straw yellow, brilliantly clear and effervescent. A white head forms readily and clings to the glass with fine, even lacing. The carbonation is lively and persistent, typical of a well-conditioned lager.
◌ Aroma
Noble hops lead the nose with a subtle grassy and herbal character, supported by a light, grainy malt foundation. The profile is clean and refreshing, with minimal yeast presence. There is no adjunct sweetness—just the straightforward composition of grain and noble varieties.
◐ Taste
The palate is crisp and dry, with a light malt body providing subtle breadiness on entry. Hop bitterness builds gently through the mid-palate, at 20 IBU a measured presence that leans toward restraint rather than assertion. The finish dries cleanly without harshness.
◑ Finish
Short to medium finish with a lingering dryness. The aftertaste is clean and malt-forward, fading smoothly without any astringency or residual sweetness.
