Short Sands

◎ Appearance

Short Sands presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright transparency. The head forms with moderate density and displays crisp, persistent lacing that clings evenly to the glass. Fine carbonation rises steadily, creating a lively visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a delicate balance of noble-hop florality and light stone-fruit notes from low-temperature fermentation. Beneath lies a clean malt foundation—toasted and faintly bready—with no sharp edges or sulfur. A whisper of Hallertau Mittelfruh adds herbaceous dimension without dominating.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with malty backbone meeting restrained Edelhopfen bitterness (18 IBU). Mid-palate carries toasted grain and a touch of Vienna-malt sweetness, balanced by lean structure and gentle hop spice. Finish remains dry and clean, with no astringency or cloying aftertaste.

◑ Finish

The finish is short to medium, fading smoothly with lingering malt character and a faint herbal edge. Aftertaste stays clean and pleasant, inviting another sip.
