5500 Pilsner

◎ Appearance

Pale golden in color with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that forms strong lacing down the glass. The carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a steady stream of fine bubbles that maintains the foam collar throughout the drinking experience.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by classic German noble hops, with delicate floral notes layered over subtle citrus undertones—hints of lemon zest and dried herbs. A light, clean malt base provides gentle support without overshadowing the hop character, creating an inviting and balanced aromatic profile.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a crisp, refreshing entry that emphasizes hop-derived bitterness balanced against a light, slightly sweet malt foundation. The mid-palate develops graceful spice and flower notes with a dry, measured bitterness that never becomes aggressive; the finish remains clean with a gentle herbal quality.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and relatively short, fading with a lingering herbal and slightly bitter note that invites the next sip. No harshness or astringency remains, leaving the palate refreshed and ready to repeat.
