Maibock

◎ Aussehen

A matte golden hue with natural cloudiness from the unfiltered brewing process, revealing suspended yeast particles that catch the light. The head forms densely and clings to the glass walls with fine, persistent lacing. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a gentle effervescence befitting a spring seasonal.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a soft, herbal quality from Hallertau Tradition and Saphir noble hops, displaying restrained floral and spice notes. Beneath the hop character lies a warm caramel sweetness from the malt bill, complemented by subtle fruity esters—stone fruit and orchard notes—that emerge from the yeast. The overall impression is balanced and inviting, without aggressive volatility.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens smooth and round, the caramel malts providing a full-bodied sweetness that coats without cloying. Noble hop bitterness integrates seamlessly at 18 IBU, offering a gentle counterpoint that builds subtly through the mid-palate. The finish is clean and slightly crisp, with a refreshing quality that invites another sip while the malty roundness persists on the tongue.

◑ Abgang

The aftertaste is medium in length, with caramel notes gradually fading to a dry, slightly herbal conclusion. The gentle hop bite lingers pleasantly without harshness, leaving the palate refreshed and ready for the next pour.
