Tap to rate
🌍 Italy · Vienna Lager · One of 27 Vienna Lagers in hopIQ

A Vienna Lager from the city that was once the empire's most important Adriatic port — Theresianer's Vienna is a natural expression of Trieste's deep cultural ties with Austria. Amber-copper with a toasty, bready malt character, gentle caramel sweetness and a clean, balanced finish at 5.3%. One of Italy's finest amber lagers, drawing on the same noble tradition as the great Viennese originals the Theresianer name recalls.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Theresianer Vienna

Appearance

Amber-copper in color with a bright, clear body and excellent clarity. The head forms with fine, persistent foam that clings to the glass in delicate lacing as it subsides. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, lending gentle visual liveliness without aggression.

Aroma

The nose leads with toasted grain and a gentle bready character, reminiscent of lightly caramelized malt. Subtle caramel sweetness emerges beneath, while a faint mineral earthiness grounds the profile. Noble hop aromatics remain restrained and supportive, never dominating.

Taste

The entry is smooth and malty, with toasted bread and caramel sweetness establishing the core. The mid-palate maintains balance, where gentle noble hop bitterness (25 IBU) provides structure without harshness. The overall impression is clean and harmonious, with mineral notes adding subtle complexity and preventing cloying sweetness.
