Kraus Edelpils

◎ Aussehen

Pours a bright straw to golden yellow with excellent clarity. The head is fine and persistent, leaving delicate lacing on the glass. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, characteristic of a properly conditioned German pilsner.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced grassy and floral notes from noble hops, underpinned by light, clean grain. A subtle hint of orange peel emerges as the beer warms, adding citrus lift without dominating. The overall profile is delicate and herbaceous, with no yeast or adjunct character.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is slim and slightly sweet from the malt base, but hops assert themselves immediately. The mid-palate develops spicy, floral hop bitterness with a whisper of orange peel complexity. Bitterness builds firmly through the middle and carries into a long, bone-dry finish that echoes the sharper pilsner tradition of northern Germany.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and distinctly dry, with lingering hoppy bitterness and a subtle orange peel note fading into clean grain. No sweetness remains.

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.
