Pietra Bionda

◎ Appearance

Pale golden colour with excellent clarity and a bright, white head that settles to a fine lacing around the glass. The carbonation is lively, evident in the steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the body. A clean, inviting presentation characteristic of the pilsner style.

◌ Aroma

Fresh and clean on the nose, with subtle noble hop character providing a gentle floral and herbal dimension. A soft maltiness emerges beneath, carrying notes of grain and a faint nuttiness from the chestnut component. The overall bouquet is restrained and inviting, without aggressive hop or alcohol warmth.

◐ Taste

Clean, crisp entry with a light malt backbone that allows the subtle chestnut sweetness to emerge softly on the palate. The bitterness is restrained and well-balanced, sitting at around 38 IBU, providing just enough edge to frame the malt without overwhelming it. A smooth, mineral-driven mid-palate completes the impression of an approachable, food-friendly lager.

◑ Finish

Dry, slightly bitter finish with lingering mineral notes and a touch of brisk hop character that fades cleanly. The aftertaste is refreshing and leaves no heaviness, making this an ideal session beer.

Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.

The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.
