Appearance

Copper-hued and visibly hazy, with sediment suspended throughout the glass. The head forms with moderate persistence, leaving a fine Schaumkleiden along the inner walls. Fine carbonation supports a soft, approachable presentation.

copper, hazymoderate headfine carbonation

Aroma

A layered nose unfolds with prominent forest berry and stone fruit character, moving toward fresh exotic fruit notes. Subtle wheat grain and spelt malt provide a mild, earthy base without dominating. Top fermentation yields clean ale yeast character, allowing the fruit and cereal notes to develop clearly.

Mid-palate shows layered berry and subtle exotic fruit alongside soft spelt and wheat character. Finish closes with mild, well-integrated bitterness that balances the fruit sweetness without harshness.
