Classic

Tap to rate

An amber-golden, unfiltered lager under white foam, balanced and malt-led. The aroma is classic indeed: complex malt with breadcrumbs and a little toffee, with a very discreet hop note on top. The taste is semi-dry and medium-bodied, with caramel and brioche, a light touch of fresh, spicy hops and low bitterness. The aftertaste is rounded, with a slightly sweet touch that rounds off the picture

◎ Appearance

Amber-golden hue with excellent clarity despite the unfiltered character. A stable white head sits atop the glass, displaying fine Schaumkleiden that gradually recede with measured restraint. Bright carbonation is evident throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with complex malt character—breadcrumbs and light toffee notes build a rounded foundation. A subtle Edelhopfen note emerges on the top, herbaceous and restrained, allowing the malt to remain the focus without any aggressive aromatic flourish.

◐ Taste

The palate opens semi-dry and medium-bodied, revealing caramel and brioche notes that interweave with the malt base. A light touch of fresh, spicy hops surfaces in the mid-palate, supported by low bitterness that never dominates. The beer remains smooth and well-integrated throughout.
