Winterhopfen

◎ Aussehen

Winterhopfen presents a bright golden yellow hue with subtle orange reflections, displaying excellent clarity and brightness. The head forms with fine, persistent bubbles that leave delicate lacing on the glass as you drink. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, contributing to a refined visual presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced floral hop notes that mingle seamlessly with soft, rounded malt character. Subtle breadiness emerges beneath, grounded by the noble hop profile typical of the Görlitz brewing tradition. There is no harsh resinosity; instead, the aromatics convey elegance and balance.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is full and round, with malt providing the foundation and a gentle, woven bitterness (22 IBU) preventing cloying sweetness. Floral hop flavors persist through the mid-palate without dominating, while a clean, crisp character keeps the beer drinking smoothly. The body is substantial yet never heavy, making each sip approachable.

◑ Abgang

The finish is malt-driven and lingering, with a pleasant warmth that fades gradually. A whisper of hop bitterness remains, leaving the palate refreshed rather than parched.
