Winter-Traum

◎ Appearance

Winter-Traum presents a warm amber hue with excellent clarity and luminosity. The head is compact and fine-pored, clinging to the glass with defined persistence. Carbonation is lively and evenly distributed, creating a gentle stream of bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced caramel and toasted malt character from the combination of pale and dark barley malts and specialty additions. Noble hop varieties—Herkules, Perle, and Tradition—contribute subtle herbal and spicy undertones without dominating the profile. The overall impression is warm and inviting, with no harsh or vegetal notes.

◐ Taste

Caramel and malt sweetness occupy the foreground on entry and mid-palate, supported by a full, rounded body. The noble hops provide restrained bitterness and a gentle herbal edge that balances the malt-forward character without interrupting it. The 22 IBU score aligns with perception: clean and integrated, never sharp or astringent.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium in length, lingering gently with residual malt warmth and a faint herbal echo. The aftertaste remains clean and malty, fading gracefully without drying the palate.
