Valiant

◎ Aussehen

Valiant presents a light amber hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent head. The carbonation is notably lively, creating a spritzy visual character that persists throughout the pour. Schaumkleiden cling delicately to the glass, indicating good foam stability.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with a pronounced hop-forward character, where Fuggles, Bobek and Challenger create an inviting blend of noble earthiness and subtle citrus notes. Beneath the hops sit biscuity, bread-like malt notes from the English extra pale base, with a clean, welcoming fruitiness that suggests ripe orchard fruit rather than yeast-driven esters.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with malt sweetness providing immediate body. The mid-palate develops biscuit and slight bread character from the crystal and wheat components, balanced by the persistent but soft bitterness of classic Fuggles. Citrus notes emerge subtly across the palate, maintaining harmony between malt sweetness and hop bitterness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and lingering, with the Bobek and Challenger hops delivering a dry, refreshing exit that keeps the beer spritzy to the very end. Residual bitterness remains soft and refined, never harsh.
