Zepp

◎ Appearance

Zepp presents a brilliant golden hue with excellent clarity and fine white head that settles into delicate lacing along the glass. The carbonation is brisk and persistent, creating a lively visual presence typical of well-conditioned lager. The pale straw color reflects the light-bodied character promised on the nose.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with a pronounced floral character from the noble hop trio—Herkules, Saazer, and Spalter Select—delivering refined aromatic complexity without aggression. Subtle herbal undertones emerge beneath the flowers, hinting at gentle spice and green plant matter. Malt presence is restrained and clean, allowing the Edelhopfen to dominate the bouquet.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and dry, with a light malt foundation that avoids heaviness while providing structural support. The mid-palate develops the herbal and floral hop profile smoothly, with 29 IBU delivering restrained bitterness that complements rather than dominates. The finish transitions into increasing dryness, with a mineral quality that accentuates the noble hop character.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and clean, with a lingering floral-herbal aftertaste that invites another sip. No residual sweetness or heaviness remains; the beer concludes with a mineral crispness that refreshes the palate.
