St. Georgen Goldmärzen

◎ Appearance

Light amber hue with excellent clarity, crowned by a slightly cream-coloured head that demonstrates good persistence and adhesion to the glass. The carbonation is gentle and refined, consistent with the classical lagering tradition of Franconian brewing.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced caramel sweetness and toasted grain character from the pale and caramel-coloured Franconian malts. Noble hop varieties—Hallertauer Tradition and Spalter Select—remain restrained in the background, allowing subtle honey and bready notes to emerge without asserting themselves.

◐ Taste

The palate is full-bodied and malt-centric, opening with rounded caramel sweetness that develops into warm grain and gentle toasted character mid-palate. Bitterness remains soft and integrated at 22 IBU, contributing structure without harshness, while a pleasant dryness and smooth texture maintain balance throughout.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately lingering, with caramel and grain notes fading into a soft, dry aftertaste. A subtle warmth from the 5.6% alcohol is barely perceptible, leaving the palate refreshed rather than weighted.

Serve at 7–9°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The sturdy German stein maintains temperature and keeps carbonation intact. Built for long, convivial drinking.
