Twigs

◎ Appearance

Deep amber hue with excellent clarity, crowned by a creamy, persistent head that clings to the glass in fine lacing. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, presenting a refined visual presentation characteristic of a top-fermented lager.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced campfire smoke and toasted bread crust, complemented by subtle roasted nuts and honey notes that emerge beneath. Noble spice from Spalt hops adds an earthy dimension, while faint fig character rounds out the complex aromatic profile without overwhelming the other elements.

◐ Taste

Entry is malty and full-bodied, with the smoked character asserting itself immediately across the palate. Mid-palate reveals layers of roasted grain, hazelnut, and caramel sweetness before a decisive, lingering bitterness from Spalt hops arrives and persists, grounded by earthy spice notes.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and sustained, with bitter and smoky notes holding sway over a residual malty sweetness. A clean, warming alcohol presence supports the lengthy aftertaste.
