Vixen

◎ Aussehen

Vixen presents a clear copper hue with good brilliance, reflecting its carefully balanced Malz bill. The head forms with moderate density and displays stable Schaumkleiden along the glass walls. Carbonation is gentle and persistent, appropriate for a session-strength bitter.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with honeyed sweetness from the base Malz, layered with subtle hedgerow fruit notes and a whisper of warm spice. Late Pacific Gem hop additions bring forward ripe berry and stone fruit character, adding complexity without overwhelming the delicate malt foundation.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is balanced and approachable, with initial Malz-derived warmth and honey character giving way to a restrained but present bitterness. The 28 IBU frame the finish cleanly without astringency, while the fruity Pacific Gem character persists through the mid-palate, lending subtle complexity to this accessible bitter.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and of moderate length, with the berry notes from Pacific Gem fading gradually into a clean, slightly spiced aftertaste. Lingering hop bitterness and Malz character remain present but unobtrusive, encouraging another sip.
