Ott Export-Bier

◎ Appearance

Bright golden-yellow with excellent clarity and fine carbonation. The head builds with moderate density and displays crisp, persistent lacing that clings to the glass with each sip. Light catches the body with an almost luminous quality typical of well-crafted export lagers.

◌ Aroma

Clean, understated nose emphasizing soft cereal and bready notes from the Malz. Subtle Edelhopfen character emerges as a light herbal whisper, while delicate floral and honey undertones suggest the mineral character of mountain spring water. The profile sits in studied equilibrium—neither hop-forward nor malt-dominated.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and full-bodied despite the moderate 5.3% ABV, with malty sweetness establishing the palate's foundation. Mid-palate builds a bready, slightly honeyed character that flows seamlessly into restrained hop bitterness (28 IBU)—present enough to cleanse without asserting itself. The overall impression is one of balance and cleanliness, refreshing without sharp edges.

◑ Finish

Medium finish with lingering malty warmth and gentle herbal notes. The aftertaste remains clean and slightly dry, inviting the next sip without fatigue.
