Raschhofer Schnitt

◎ Aussehen

Deep amber hue with a warm, burnished clarity characteristic of a well-crafted lager. The head forms with modest density and displays fine Schaumhaftung down the glass. Carbonation is gentle and persistent, appropriate to the style's traditional lagering process.

◌ Aroma

Welcoming nose led by the caramel malt base, which imparts a subtle spice character. Behind this sits a faint roasty undertone with whispers of stone fruit—plum particularly evident—alongside a restrained but clean Edelhopfen aroma that adds freshness without dominance.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and malt-forward, with the extra caramel malt delivering both sweetness and that distinctive spicy note. The mid-palate remains balanced, with the roasty undertone providing mild complexity. Bitterness is modest (22 IBU) and well-integrated, never sharp, allowing the malt character to remain the focus throughout.

◑ Abgang

Clean, relatively short finish that fades with the caramel malt sweetness gradually receding. The aftertaste remains dry and malty, with no lingering hop bite or harshness.
