Ottakringer BrauWerk Sunbeam

◎ Aussehen

Hazy light yellow with a bright, luminous quality characteristic of the style. A generous, creamy head forms and clings to the glass with fine Schaumkleiden. Lively carbonation drives persistent bubbles through the body, creating a visually active pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced clove and banana esters typical of Trappist yeast fermentation, backed by soft citrus notes. Wheat grain adds a subtle, grainy sweetness without dominating. Noble hops contribute only a gentle floral undertone, allowing the yeast character to shine.

◐ Geschmack

Opens with a velvety, smooth mouthfeel before transitioning to a crisp, well-integrated palate. Wheat impressions linger gently through the mid-palate, supported by light fruity and honey notes that add complexity without sweetness. A mild hop bitterness emerges late, providing clean definition without aggression.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and moderately long, fading cleanly with residual yeast and grain character. A gentle hop kiss lingers briefly before yielding to a refreshing, dry aftertaste.
