Vintage Pilsner

◎ Aussehen

Cloudy straw gold rather than bright, with fine natural carbonation that builds a tall, loose head when poured slowly. The unfiltered character creates a soft, hazy appearance that diffuses light gently across the glass. Head retention is generous, clinging to the rim with persistent, delicate lacing.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with fresh dough and dry cracker from the pilsner malt, underpinned by a thin thread of honey sweetness. Saaz hops contribute a grassy, faintly floral character with a gentle spice that does not overwhelm. The overall impression is clean and herbaceous, with no yeast volatility despite the unfiltered nature.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens soft against a firm, lingering bitterness that belies the modest 5% ABV. Bready malt sweetness and mineral minerality form the foundation, while Saaz hops deliver spice and grassiness that extends through the mid-palate. The texture remains silky despite the dry finish, balancing bitter intensity with a subtle honey note.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and mineral, with bitterness carrying cleanly into the aftertaste. No sweetness lingers; instead, a crisp, herbaceous note persists pleasantly without astringency.

Gut gekühlt bei 4–6°C für maximale Frische servieren. Ein zu warm serviertes Pilsner verliert seinen charakteristischen Biss.

Das hohe, schmale Pilsnerglas erhält die Kohlensäure und zeigt die goldene Klarheit, die den Stil ausmacht.
