Hirter Freigeist

◎ Aussehen

Pale straw yellow with excellent clarity and fine carbonation. The head forms with modest initial volume but displays good retention and lacing throughout the glass. The unfiltered character remains visually clean despite the absence of filtration.

◌ Aroma

The nose presents a classically beery profile with a distinctive honey tone derived from the special yeast strain. Dry-hopped noble hops contribute a refined floral and herbal character that lifts the bouquet above typical alcohol-free lagers. Subtle bread-like notes emerge beneath, grounded in quality barley malt.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens clean and crisp, with a harmonious malty structure that avoids heaviness despite the low ABV. Mild bitterness (22 IBU) arrives mid-palate, balanced by soft honey undertones and a faint bread character. The dry-hopping provides a lasting hop impression without astringency.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and medium-length, with the hop bitterness gradually receding to reveal a subtle honey-malt dryness. No cloying sweetness remains, leaving the palate refreshed and ready for another sip.
