Arch 55 - Italian Pilsner

◎ Aussehen

A pale golden body with fine, persistent carbonation and a bright, pillowy white head that clings to the glass with deliberate retention. The unfiltered character is evident in a slight haze that catches the light, giving the beer a luminous quality without obscuring its clarity. The overall impression is one of active, lively presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with clean, spicy hop notes from Magnum and Spalt Select—white pepper and subtle herbal minerality dominate. Noble Saphir adds a dry hop layer that is both delicate and precise, with hints of dried citrus peel and gentle floral undertones. The malt foundation sits quietly in the background, allowing the hopwork to speak without interference.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens crisp and direct, with the pilsner malt providing a light, grainy foundation that neither masks nor dominates the hop profile. Bitterness arrives cleanly in the mid-palate—sharp and focused rather than aggressive—and builds a dry, peppery sensation across the tongue. The finish is driven by the noble hops, leaving an herbal, slightly bitter dryness that invites another sip.

◑ Abgang

A clean, lingering dryness persists, with the herbal and peppery notes from the Saphir dry hop sustaining through the aftertaste. The beer fades without harshness, leaving only a refreshing, mineral-tinged memory.

Gut gekühlt bei 4–6°C für maximale Frische servieren. Ein zu warm serviertes Pilsner verliert seinen charakteristischen Biss.

Das hohe, schmale Pilsnerglas erhält die Kohlensäure und zeigt die goldene Klarheit, die den Stil ausmacht.
