Engel Weihnachtsbier

◎ Aussehen

Naturally cloudy amber with a warm, honeyed glow. The yeast suspension creates a soft, diffuse appearance characteristic of the style. Head retention is moderate, with delicate lacing that gradually recedes.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with restrained malt sweetness, offering gentle notes of bread crust and honey. Yeast character emerges as a softening influence, accompanied by subtle fruity esters and a faint spicy undertone from noble hops.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is soft and round on the tongue, the yeast providing a silky texture. Mid-palate develops into pronounced malty richness with bready character, while mild noble hop bitterness (22 IBU) provides gentle structure without sharpness. The finish turns notably strong and malty, with clean bitterness.

◑ Abgang

Strong malty aftertaste lingers with warmth and slight dryness. A seasonal beer that rewards slow sipping during festive occasions.
