pFriem Mexican Dark Lager

◎ Aussehen

A burnished red body with mahogany undertones and excellent clarity. The dense, off-white head displays strong retention and leaves fine lacing on the glass as the beer is consumed. Carbonation is moderate and evenly dispersed.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent toffee and cocoa, followed by dark chocolate and baked apple. A subtle spice—clove—threads through, while Perle and Saaz hops contribute a grassy, herbal undertone that prevents the beer from becoming too sweet. Nutty notes of peanut brittle add complexity.

◐ Geschmack

The palate balances malt richness with restrained bitterness (24 IBU), allowing the Vienna and pilsner malts to shine with their toasted character. Corn grits soften the body to a smooth, approachable texture. Raisin and pear butter notes emerge mid-palate, rounded out by cinnamon warmth, while the herbal hop edge remains present but never aggressive.

◑ Abgang

The finish is light and clean, allowing the beer to conclude without heaviness despite its malt-forward profile. A gentle drying sensation and lingering herbal note fade steadily.
