A bronze-coloured export lager with a sturdy head, brewed with barley malt and a share of caramel malt. The brewery describes light honey aromas and a delicate, floral hop note, carried by a full malt body that still drinks refreshingly. The finish brings a fine bitterness, accompanied by a gentle malty sweetness. Hopped with Hallertauer Tradition and Hallertauer Select.

◎ Appearance

A bright bronze lager with excellent clarity and a pale straw-gold luminosity. The head is substantial and persistent, with fine cohesion and stable lacing that clings to the glass walls. Carbonation is evident but restrained, appropriate to the style.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with soft honey notes, warm and inviting without cloying sweetness. A delicate floral hop character emerges, lean and refined, suggesting the Hallertauer varieties at work. The malt foundation is clean and biscuity, with a faint bread-like undertone that frames the composition.

◐ Taste

On the palate, the beer presents a full, malty body that drinks with genuine refreshment. The caramel malt contribution lends a subtle sweetness that balances the spice and herbal notes from the noble hops. The mid-palate is smooth and rounded, building toward a clean, fine bitterness that does not overwhelm.
