Yggdrasil

◎ Appearance

Yggdrasil presents a bright copper-red hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent head that clings to the glass with good lacing. The carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a soft, creamy foam collar that gradually recedes.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright red berry fruit—strawberry and raspberry notes mingle with a subtle stone fruit backdrop. Munich and pale ale malt provide a soft, warm bread crust character, while Cara Red malt adds gentle toffee undertones without overwhelming the composition.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and malty, with a lean body that allows the fruity and caramel notes to come into focus. Mid-palate develops a restrained sweetness from the specialty malts—toffee and light candy notes—before hops emerge in the finish with a crisp, lasting bitterness that feels fresh rather than harsh.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-length, dry, and pleasantly bitter with lingering hop character that leaves a clean, refreshing aftertaste. The bitterness is well-balanced and inviting, never astringent.
