Elbsommer

◎ Aussehen

Naturally hazy and straw-yellow, with a fine turbidity from active yeast in suspension. The cloudiness imparts a soft, luminous quality to the pale golden body. Moderate carbonation produces a delicate, persistent head with refined lacing.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright stone fruit and orchard fruit notes—fresh apple, pear, and peach dominate, underscored by subtle quince. Citrus notes of orange and mandarin emerge on closer inspection, with a gentle herbal undertone from noble hops and a soft yeasty warmth from the live culture.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with a light, crisp bitterness that frames a complex fruity center. Apple, pear, and elderberry develop across the mid-palate alongside bright mandarin and peach notes, while the noble hops provide a restrained noble character. The malt base remains clean and transparent, allowing the fruit and citrus to lead.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and refreshing, with the bitterness receding gracefully into a lingering fruity aftertaste. Berry and citrus notes persist briefly before fading into a dry, mineral-tinged conclusion.
