Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Hannen Alt
◎ Appearance
Deep, dark brown in the glass with a clear, lustrous body. A modest off-white head forms quickly and holds with light retention and delicate lacing. Fine carbonation is evident in its gentle, steady rise.
◌ Aroma
The nose presents a restrained, malty character dominated by roasted grain and subtle bread crust notes. Toffee sweetness emerges beneath, with minimal hop presence—just a dry, earthy undertone that frames rather than dominates the profile.
◐ Taste
A round, full body carries sweetness forward on entry, with toffee and caramel anchoring the mid-palate. A firm bitterness builds gradually, creating counterbalance without harshness, while bread crust notes ground the overall impression. The wheat addition softens the finish slightly without obscuring the roasted malt foundation.
◑ Finish
The finish shifts toward dry, with a dry hop character asserting itself cleanly. The aftertaste fades gently, leaving residual bread crust and a light, lingering bitterness.
