Broll

Tap to rate

Citrus, floral and slightly resinous aromas, with a moderate malt scent as the prelude to the smell so typical of Centennial and Chinook, lead to a hoppy palate with the citrus, floral and resinous character of American hops over a clean, light malt flavour. Refreshing, with the malts in the background. Broll pours dark gold, slightly cloudy from yeast in suspension, under white foam that holds well; Hercules joins the two hops.

Serve at 7–10°C

Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.

Pint glass

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
