Staghorn

◎ Aussehen

Staghorn presents a bright amber hue with excellent clarity, glowing warmly when held to light as tradition suggests. The head forms dense and creamy, with fine Schaumkleiden that cling to the glass in a delicate lace pattern. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a soft, inviting visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced roasted malt character, offering deep notes of bread crust and subtle caramel sweetness. European and Midwestern malts contribute a toasty complexity without harshness. Fresh German yeast adds a clean, neutral backdrop that allows the grain character to shine through.

◐ Geschmack

The palate arrives smooth and vollmundig, with roasted malt flavors building through the mid-palate alongside gentle bready notes and light caramel. Bitterness remains restrained at 22 IBU, providing balance without dominating the malt-forward profile. The finish maintains a clean, malty character with no harsh edges or artificial aftertaste.

◑ Abgang

The finish is medium in length, fading gradually with lingering roasted and malty notes. A gentle drying sensation persists without astringency, leaving a pleasant malt memory.
