Smalls

◎ Aussehen

Pours a bright golden yellow with full opacity, presenting a substantial and stable head. The beer demonstrates good carbonation and exhibits fine Schaumhaftung along the glass. Despite its modest 3.3% ABV, the body reads fuller and more substantial than the strength suggests, a testament to the lactose addition.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with tropical stone fruit: prominent pineapple and tangerine, supported by bright orange and lemon cream notes. Guava and a subtle peach round out the fruit profile, while a faint resinous quality adds dimension. The lactose contributes a creamy, almost custard-like scent that softens the overall impression without obscuring the hop character.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with the same tropical fruit character that dominates the aroma—pineapple and citrus forward, with supporting notes of guava and stone fruit. The lactose addition delivers a silky, creamy mouthfeel that belies the low alcohol content. Bitterness is restrained at 40 IBU, integrated rather than assertive, allowing the hop-derived fruit to remain central to the experience.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and crisp, with the tropical fruit notes fading gracefully into a dry, slightly resinous fade. The residual sweetness from the lactose is balanced and does not linger heavily, leaving the palate refreshed rather than cloying.

Serviertemperatur 7–10°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.
