The nose opens with soft bread and light caramel notes from the malt base, followed by subtle cereal undertones. Herbal and delicately spicy nuances emerge from the Tradition and Saphir hops, while Herkules adds a gentle noble bitterness in the background. The overall impression is clean and malt-forward, with restrained hop character.
