Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Küné
◎ Appearance
Küné presents a bright bronze-gold hue, clear and luminous in the glass. The head forms with moderate density and leaves fine lacing as it recedes. Carbonation is visible and lively, befitting a well-conditioned pale ale.
◌ Aroma
The nose is assertive and layered, led by citrus and herbal hop character from the two Mapuche varietals. Beneath this sits a supporting caramel sweetness and a subtle toasted grain note that adds depth without heaviness. The overall impression is fresh and inviting, with no harsh edges.
◐ Taste
Entry is clean and medium-bodied, with the hop bitterness arriving as a gentle frame rather than an aggressive force at 35 IBU. The palate develops caramel maltiness and toasted grain flavors that balance the citrus and herbal notes from the aroma. Bitterness persists in the mid-palate without dominating, creating a harmonious interplay.
◑ Finish
The finish is clean and relatively dry, with lingering herbal-citrus notes fading gradually. The aftertaste remains balanced and refreshing, inviting another sip without any astringency or fatigue.
Serve & Enjoy
How to get the most out of Küné
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
