Tholi

Tap to rate

Cereals and yellow fruit lead, peach, apricot and plum, with honey, dry hay and sweet pastry underneath; the bitterness is fruity, close to a fruit stone and bitter almond, intense and long. Tholi, meaning cloudy, is an unpasteurised, unfiltered 6.2% Keller lager, bottled from the middle of the tank so that yeast and plenty of aroma hops travel with it.

Golden-yellow hue with pronounced cloudiness from suspended yeast and aroma hops, creating an opaque, inviting visual profile characteristic of the style. A dense, creamy head forms and clings to the glass with evident lacing. Fine carbonation rises steadily through the body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright stone fruit—peach and apricot—backed by subtle honey and dried hay notes. A layer of sweet pastry undertones emerges, while noble hop character brings herbal and floral complexity. The yeast contribution is clean and barely intrusive, allowing the fruit and hop aromatics to dominate.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and malty, carrying cereal backbone and yellow fruit notes that develop into peach and plum through the mid-palate. Honey sweetness sits alongside dry hay and pastry notes, creating textural depth. Bitterness emerges with fruity, almond-forward character—reminiscent of stone kernels—building intensity and persistence through the finish.

◑ Finish

Long and complex, with bitter almond and stony hop tannins persisting on the palate. A dry, hay-tinged aftertaste lingers, punctuated by lingering fruitiness that recalls the aroma.
