Dad

◎ Aussehen

Dad presents a deep amber to light copper hue, clear and luminous in the glass. The head builds to a moderate density with fine, persistent bubbles that leave fine Schaumkleiden down the side. Carbonation is moderate, lending brightness to the visual presentation without excessive effervescence.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with dank, piney hop character that dominates the sensory profile, backed by resinous notes that suggest dried evergreen and herbal minerality. Beneath the assertive hop aromatics, a sturdy malt foundation emerges—toasted grain and subtle caramel sweetness—providing ballast without softening the bracing top note.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with malty sweetness—caramel and roasted grain—that carries into the mid-palate before piney, herbal bitterness takes the lead. The 28 IBU arrive with restraint; they define rather than dominate, creating a hoppy character that is assertive yet balanced against the robust malt bill. The finish remains smooth, with lingering resin and dry bitterness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and drying, with piney hop oils and a whisper of resinous bitterness persisting through the aftertaste. The 6% ABV keeps the beer light on the palate, allowing the hop character to fade gracefully without harshness.
