Defenestration

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass. The carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a crisp visual presentation that signals the beer's dry character.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus notes—orange zest and grapefruit—layered beneath herbal and floral Edelhopfen character. A subtle spice emerges alongside stone fruit undertones, with the Kveik yeast contributing a clean, slightly fruity lift that avoids any phenolic or estery intensity.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and clean, with a restrained malt foundation that allows hop expression to dominate. Mid-palate develops herbal, spicy, and floral dimensions alongside citrus brightness; the bitterness is pronounced at 60 IBU but balanced by the dry malt character. Finish is notably dry and lingering, with a resinous hop bite that persists without harshness.

◑ Abgang

The aftertaste is long and assertively bitter, with herbal and citrus notes fading slowly. No sweetness remains; the dry quality and hopping style leave the palate clean and eager for the next sip.
