Mohrenbräu Pfeffersack

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with pronounced opalescence from natural conditioning and the absence of filtration. The beer holds a modest white head with fair retention and displays active carbonation throughout the glass. The unfiltered character creates a soft, inviting visual presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by a distinctive peppery spice—characteristic of Kampot pepper—that sits prominently over a clean, grassy hop backdrop. Subtle grainy and light malt notes provide foundation without asserting themselves, while the overall impression remains crisp and herbaceous. The spice carries an almost black-pepper sharpness rather than heat.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with immediate peppery bite that evolves into a sustained spiciness through the mid-palate, riding over a light malt sweetness and grainy dryness. The balance tilts toward the adjunct spice throughout, with low bitterness (22 IBU) allowing the pepper to dominate rather than challenge. The finish remains crisp, with peppery notes lingering into a clean, slightly dry aftertaste.

◑ Finish

The peppery character persists into a medium-length finish, fading to a clean, grainy dryness. A subtle herbal quality lingers, leaving the palate refreshed rather than heavy.
