Grimbergen 1128 Brut Bier

◎ Aussehen

Pours a slightly hazy golden yellow beneath a chalk-white head with firm retention and fine carbonation. The haziness derives from the yeast activity rather than settling particles, giving the beer a soft, lived-in appearance. Lacing clings moderately to the glass as the level drops.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with aromatic coriander and freshly baked biscuit, establishing a spiced-grain foundation. Vanilla and ripe pear emerge in the mid-range, joined by bitter orange zest and a dry white-wine character from Nelson Sauvin hops—clean, mineral, and slightly herbal without aggression.

◐ Geschmack

A faint initial sweetness dissolves quickly into a dry, crisp palate with gentle tartness. The sparkling-wine yeast strips away residual sugar while maintaining underlying fruit and grain character. Bitterness remains minimal, allowing the wine-like phenolic dryness to define the mid-palate and carry into the swallow.

◑ Abgang

The finish is taut and clean, with the white-wine character persisting as the beer fades. Aftertaste remains dry and slightly peppery, without lingering sweetness or astringency.

Serviertemperatur 9–12°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.
