Ypsilon 10.5°

◎ Appearance

Ypsilon presents a pale golden hue with exceptional clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass in delicate lacing. The carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a soft visual texture that speaks to careful conditioning during its 60-day maturation.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with distinctive noble hop character—floral and herbal notes with a subtle spiciness that distinguishes the cold hop addition. Beneath this lies a clean, crisp hoppy backdrop with resinous undertones, while the Malz foundation remains restrained and supportive, allowing the hop complexity to emerge without obstruction.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with a crisp, dry attack where the noble hop bitterness asserts itself clearly without harshness. Mid-palate reveals layered hop resin and subtle herbal complexity, while the modest malt sweetness provides balance and structure. The finish drives toward dryness with a lingering, refined bitterness characteristic of traditional Czech lager fermentation.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately long, with the hop bitterness gradually receding to leave a dry, slightly resinous aftertaste. A gentle refreshing quality lingers without fatigue, inviting the next sip.
