Ypra Hoppy Alcoholfree

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden in colour with a distinctive hazy, cloudy character arising from yeast in suspension. A white, persistent head forms initially and holds with moderate retention, creating fine lacing patterns as the foam recedes. The soft carbonation maintains gentle visual activity without aggressive effervescence.

◌ Aroma

Noble hop aromas lead the nose, delivering pronounced herbal and grassy notes characteristic of Edelhopfen varieties. Layered beneath are subtle citrus undertones—lemon zest and light grapefruit—that add complexity without dominating. A soft malty undertone provides gentle body to the overall aromatic profile, creating balance rather than austerity.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is clean and refreshing, with crisp hoppy bitterness that develops steadily across the mid-palate without harshness. Grassy and citrus flavours weave through the taste, supported by a delicate fruity character that prevents the beer from becoming one-dimensional. The 22 IBU level provides soft, integrated bitterness that complements rather than overwhelms, finishing with a pleasant dry sensation.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and relatively short, befitting an alcohol-free lager designed for refreshment. Lingering dry notes from the hops persist pleasantly on the palate without leaving residual sweetness or heaviness.
