Kaapse Theresia

◎ Appearance

Pale golden in color with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass with good retention. Carbonation is evident and well-integrated, producing a steady stream of fine bubbles that support the foam structure throughout the drink.

◌ Aroma

Smoke dominates the nose with a pleasant, woodsy character that recalls smoked malt and subtle campfire notes. Beneath the smoke sits a soft malty foundation with hints of grain and bread, while noble hops contribute a clean, slightly herbal backbone without aggression.

◐ Taste

Smoke carries through the palate with a clean, almost whisper-like intensity that integrates seamlessly with the malt sweetness. The body is light to medium, smooth and bready, with subtle noble hop bitterness that emerges in the mid-palate to balance without overwhelming. The finish is crisp and refreshing, allowing the smoke to linger gently without harshness.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with the smoke note fading to a soft, lingering aftertaste. The overall impression remains refreshing and approachable, inviting another sip without fatigue.
