◎ Aussehen

A pale golden hue with a faint pink tint imparted by cold-steeped elderberry and honey. The beer presents good clarity with a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass as you drink. Carbonation is brisk and well-integrated, supporting a lively visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a marked citrus character from dry hopping—primarily grapefruit and lime zest—layered with white-fruit notes that suggest stone fruit and green apple. Beneath this lies a subtle honey sweetness and a gentle herbal undertone from Patagonian hops. The overall effect is fresh and inviting, with no harsh solvent or alcohol notes.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with a balanced malty body that provides substance despite the modest ABV. Bitterness from the Patagonian hop charge arrives mid-palate with a clean, assertive character at 36 IBU. The elderberry and honey add a thread of faint acidity and gentle sweetness that plays counterpoint to the hop bite, creating a dynamic interplay across the tongue.

◑ Abgang

The finish turns decisively dry, shedding the sweetness and leaving a crisp hop snap and a light mineral dryness. The aftertaste fades cleanly, with just a trace of citrus lingering on the palate.

Gut gekühlt servieren. Session IPAs sind am besten kalt — der niedrigere Alkohol bedeutet weniger Wärme zur Balance der Hopfen.

Die geschwungene Form konzentriert Hopfenaromen und hält den Schaum. Unverzichtbar für aromatische Ales und IPAs, bei denen die Nase die halbe Erfahrung ist.
