Spruce Budd

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden color with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass with visible lacing. Bright carbonation lifts the body visibly, creating an inviting and fresh visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced piney and resinous notes reminiscent of fresh forest and spring growth. Herbal qualities dominate, layered with subtle floral undertones and a clean, crisp malt backbone that grounds the spruce character without heaviness.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is immediately piney and herbaceous, with the spruce character asserting itself cleanly across the palate. Mid-palate reveals a delicate sweetness and earthy complexity, balanced by moderate bitterness that recalls noble hop character despite the complete absence of conventional hops. The finish remains crisp and dry.

◑ Abgang

Medium-length finish with lingering piney and herbal notes that fade cleanly. Aftertaste remains refreshing and dry, with no cloying sweetness or woody harshness.
