Venom and Virtue

◎ Aussehen

Pale straw in colour with excellent clarity and a bright, inviting appearance. A fine white head forms readily and disperses with good lacing retention, leaving delicate trails down the glass. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a visibly effervescent pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with fresh, zesty citrus and green herbal notes from the pale malt foundation. Nettles contribute a distinctive grassy, peppery character that adds complexity and natural garden-like freshness. Subtle floral and herbal undertones round out the aromatic profile, with restrained noble hop character providing gentle spice.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is light and crisp with clean pale malt sweetness providing a soft foundation. The mid-palate develops the nettle character prominently—a tingling herbal bite that enlivens without overwhelming, accompanied by light grassy notes. Bitterness is measured at 35 IBU, offering balance without harshness, while the ale finishes with a dry, refreshing quality.

◑ Abgang

The finish is zesty and clean with a dry aftertaste that invites another sip. The nettle's herbal character lingers briefly before fading, leaving the palate refreshed and palatable.
