◎ Aussehen

Pours a clear amber-red, clean and bright. The head is slightly off-white, compact, and settles to a thin collar with modest lacing. Carbonation is evident but restrained, characteristic of a well-balanced ale.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with ripe fruit notes—stone fruit and subtle citrus—layered beneath warm spice and gentle floral undertones. Toasted malt provides a grounding sweetness without overwhelming; the overall impression is balanced and inviting rather than assertive.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is malty and toasty, with toffee and caramel building across the mid-palate. The sweetness is restrained and anchored by the substantial malt bill. Floral and fruity notes emerge in the mid-palate, leading to a moderate bitterness that persists without sharpness into the finish.

◑ Abgang

The finish is moderately dry with lingering bitterness and malt character. Aftertaste shows continued fruitiness and a subtle spiced warmth that fades cleanly.
