Absolution

◎ Aussehen

Absolution displays a bright golden hue with excellent clarity and a pale straw sheen. The head is substantial and well-retained, leaving fine lacing along the glass as it settles. Carbonation is crisp and visible, supporting a lively, inviting presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with distinct floral and fruity character from Willamette and Cascade hops, offering peach and honeysuckle notes. Bobek and Spalt add a refined citrus edge with gentle spice—orange zest and white pepper—without overwhelming the composition. Supporting this is a clean, understated malt base with a whisper of cereal grain.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is soft and approachable, with a full body that belies the modest 5.3% ABV. Mid-palate reveals layered fruit—stone fruit and citrus—balanced by the herbal and spicy contribution of continental hops. Bitterness is restrained at 29 IBU, present as a refined edge rather than an assertive force, allowing complexity to surface.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with lingering citrus and spice fading gracefully. Aftertaste remains fruity and pleasant, inviting another sip without harsh residue.
