Pinkus Extra

◎ Aussehen

Pinkus Extra presents a bright, pale gold hue with excellent clarity and a luminous quality typical of well-crafted pilsners. The head is substantial and white, building with vigor and clinging to the glass in a fine lace as the beer is consumed. Carbonation appears lively and well-integrated, supporting the head's persistence throughout the tasting.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by grassy and herbal notes from the Hallertau and Tettnang hops, with a distinctive bright lemon character cutting through. A light, restrained malt backdrop emerges on closer inspection, allowing the hop character to remain firmly in the foreground. The organic cultivation of both hops and malts contributes to a clean, naturally expressive bouquet without harsh or oxidative edges.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens crisp and dry, with hop oils and spicy herbal notes dominating the mid-palate. Malt provides only a light, supporting sweetness—no substantial grain body distracts from the beer's assertive bitter character. The finish transitions into a pronounced, lingering bitterness that is the beer's defining feature, building steadily rather than arriving abruptly.

◑ Abgang

The aftertaste is long and distinctly bitter, with hop resin and herbal spice persisting on the palate. A faint malt echo retreats quickly, leaving bitterness and dry minerality as the lasting impression.

Gut gekühlt bei 4–6°C für maximale Frische servieren. Ein zu warm serviertes Pilsner verliert seinen charakteristischen Biss.

Das hohe, schmale Pilsnerglas erhält die Kohlensäure und zeigt die goldene Klarheit, die den Stil ausmacht.
