Dry Hopped Sour

◎ Aussehen

Pale straw yellow with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass in delicate lace patterns. Carbonation is moderate and even, creating a gentle stream of small bubbles that sustains the foam structure throughout service.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright, herbaceous hop character—citrus and floral notes predominate from dry hopping. Beneath lies a subtle tartness and funky undertone from fermentation, creating an intriguing tension between crisp botanical elements and winey, slightly earthy complexity. No aggressive malt presence; the bouquet remains lean and refreshing.

◐ Geschmack

Dry-hopped sour character dominates the palate from entry through mid-palate, with pronounced acidity and resinous hop bitterness playing in concert. The low IBU delivers restraint; the sourness and hop bite provide all necessary friction. Underlying stone fruit and subtle berry notes add dimension without sweetness. Finish is bone-dry and puckering, with a tannic snap that lingers.

◑ Abgang

The finish is crisp and lingering, with persistent acidity and a dry, slightly astringent aftertaste that invites the next sip. The hop character fades gradually, leaving only tartness and mineral dryness on the palate.
