Ratsherrn Zwickel

◎ Appearance

Pale golden with a characteristic natural haze from its unfiltered nature, displaying excellent clarity despite the Naturtrüb character. A modest white head forms with fine bubbles and moderate retention, reflecting the restrained carbonation typical of a fresh tank sample.

◌ Aroma

Fresh and inviting with prominent grassy hop notes balanced by subtle spice and earthy undertones. Clean malt backbone provides light grain and bread aromas, while a gentle yeasty character adds complexity without dominating the nose.

◐ Taste

Crisp and refreshing entry with a fine malt body that avoids heaviness, leading to a well-balanced mid-palate of grain and bread character. Restrained bitterness (18 IBU) provides structure without aggression, finishing with admirable dryness and cleanliness.

◑ Finish

Clean and dry finish with excellent clarity, allowing the delicate malt and hop character to linger pleasantly without any harsh edges. The aftertaste remains fresh and refreshing, true to the honest, unmanipulated nature of this traditional tank sample.
