◌ Aroma
The nose opens with lightly toasted bread crust and caramel sweetness, followed by toffee notes that linger pleasantly. Subtle undertones of nut and a whisper of wood emerge on closer inspection, creating a complex yet harmonious aromatic profile characteristic of a well-aged lager.
◐ Taste
Entry brings bready, nutty maltiness with moderate sweetness that sits comfortably on the palate. The mid-palate shows a clean malt backbone with low bitterness that never overwhelms, allowing the grain character to remain central. The finish is fairly dry, with the residual sweetness giving way to a subtle astringency.
◑ Finish
