Zwickl

◎ Aussehen

Zwickl presents a pale golden hue beneath a substantial, creamy head. The beer's hallmark haziness stems from suspended yeast and the absence of filtration—a defining characteristic of true Kellerbier. Fine carbonation and persistent Schaumhaftung reinforce its cellar-fresh, unrefined character.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a pronounced yeast bloom—grainy and slightly fruity esters balanced by a whisper of fresh bread. Behind this foundation lies subtle Edelhopfen character: herbal and gently spicy notes that suggest Hallertauer or similar noble varieties. The overall impression is clean and restrained, never aggressive.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is mild and approachable, with a soft Malz foundation offering bready, lightly sweet flavors. Mid-palate develops subtle malt complexity without fullness, maintaining excellent crispness throughout. The finish arrives quickly with a short, clean hop bitterness (25 IBU) that neither lingers nor overwhelms, characteristic of the style.

◑ Abgang

The aftertaste fades briskly, leaving only a light, dry impression and a faint herbal echo. This brevity is intentional—Kellerbier rewards quick, thirst-quenching consumption rather than contemplation.
