Fürstenberg Helles Naturtrüb

Tap to rate

An unfiltered helles brewed to 11.4 °P with barley malt from the region and yeast from the brewery's own propagation, which gives it a golden colour and a gentle haze. Tasters describe a fresh nose of grain and mineral, yeasty notes with a hint of citrus, followed by a soft, slightly sweet palate of cereal malt. Restrained aroma hopping keeps the bitterness low and the body light. Each carnival season it wears Fürstenberg's Fasnet special labels.

A pale golden hue with a fine, persistent haze from natural cloudiness through yeast. The head forms quickly and clings to the glass in delicate lacing. Bright carbonation is evident in steady, fine bubbles rising through the body.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and approachable, with cereal malt flavour unfolding across the mid-palate and a gentle sweetness that balances the minimal bitterness. The body remains light and refreshing, allowing the malt character to speak without heaviness. Low IBUs keep the finish dry yet never harsh.
