Berliner Pulle

◎ Aussehen

Amber hue with a naturally hazy character from suspended yeast and trub, giving the beer a soft, cloudy appearance. The head forms with modest retention, settling into a fine collar of foam. Carbonation appears gentle and restrained, appropriate for a fresh-from-tank Kellerbier.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with forward caramel and toffee notes from the pale and caramel malts, inviting and accessible. Behind this malt sweetness sits a restrained herbal and floral backdrop from the three Hallertau varieties—Tradition, Hallertauer Mittelfrüh, and Hersbrucker Spät—offering subtle complexity without dominance. A faint yeasty character from the suspended yeast adds gentle, earthy depth.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is full and soft, with caramel and malt sweetness developing immediately and sustaining through the mid-palate without cloying. Noble hops deliver only a restrained 15 IBU of bitterness, allowing the malt to remain in focus while providing structure and balance. The finish carries toffee-like flavors with a subtle herbal edge, drinking smooth and slightly sweet throughout.

◑ Abgang

The finish is soft and medium in length, fading gently with lingering caramel sweetness and a whisper of herbal character. No harsh edges or dry astringency—this beer closes as it began, approachable and full.
