Great Northern Zero

◎ Appearance

Pours a deep gold with bright clarity and good light transmission. The head forms with modest density and exhibits steady retention, with fine Schaumkleiden clinging to the glass walls. Carbonation is visible as a steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the liquid.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced fruity notes of apple and pear, lending a fresh and orchard-like character to the beer. Underlying the fruit are subtle malt sweetness and honey notes that provide body to the bouquet, with a restrained grassy hop background that does not overwhelm the delicate balance.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and clean, with malt sweetness and honey flavours establishing themselves on the mid-palate. The palate carries grain character and a restrained grassy bitterness that anchors the sweetness without dominating, creating a well-balanced interplay between fruit, malt, and hop elements.

◑ Finish

The finish remains clean and crisp, with the bitterness fading quickly into a dry, refreshing aftertaste. No lingering sweetness or harsh notes persist—the overall impression closes bright and refreshing.
