Phantoms

◎ Aussehen

Pale straw yellow with a distinctly hazy, opaque character from suspended yeast and grain proteins. A full, creamy head forms readily and clings to the glass with visible lacing as you drink. The cloudiness is the hallmark of the style—inviting rather than indefinite.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus notes—grapefruit and sweet orange from the Citra—layered with lime zest and herbal resin from Motueka. Nelson Sauvin adds a subtle white grape undertone, almost floral. A soft, bready maltz backbone keeps the bouquet grounded without overwhelming.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is clean and soft, carried by oats and wheat that deliver a smooth, almost velvety mouthfeel. Mid-palate brings the hop complexity into focus: citrus brightness paired with a dry, herbal bite and a whisper of tropical stone fruit. Bitterness is restrained and integrated, finishing dry without harshness.

◑ Abgang

The aftertaste lingers gently, with lingering citrus and herbal notes fading to a clean, slightly grainy dryness. Refreshing and inviting for another sip.

Serviertemperatur 8–11°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.

Die geschwungene Form konzentriert Hopfenaromen und hält den Schaum. Unverzichtbar für aromatische Ales und IPAs, bei denen die Nase die halbe Erfahrung ist.
