◐ Taste

The palate enters crisp and dry, with citrus notes complementing the refined Edelpilsen hop bitterness. Mid-palate maintains focus: clean malt support balances the moderate 20 IBU without astringency. The finish is refreshing and linear, leaving a light, pleasant bitter snap.

◑ Finish

A short to medium finish with a lingering herbal and bitter edge that fades gracefully. The lemongrass character persists delicately on the aftertaste without becoming cloying.

Serve at 4–7°C

Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.

Pilsner glass

The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.

Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.
