Nu Skool

◎ Aussehen

Nu Skool presents a bright pale gold color with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that builds and clings well to the glass. The carbonation is lively and visible, with a steady stream of small bubbles rising through the body. Schaumhaftung remains strong throughout the tasting, leaving delicate lacing on the glass walls.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent tropical fruit notes—pineapple and stone fruit—layered beneath a sharp resinous edge and herbaceous pine character. Spicy and slightly citrus undertones emerge from the experimental hop blend, creating a complex and forward-facing aromatic profile. A subtle malty sweetness provides gentle backbone without obscuring the hop-driven character.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is clean and crisp, with tropical and citrus flavors immediately evident across the mid-palate. The resinous, piney character builds steadily, complemented by spicy hop compounds that persist without harshness. Underlying malty sweetness provides structure and balance, while a moderate bitter finish (60 IBU) arrives clean and defined without astringency.

◑ Abgang

The finish is crisp and moderately long, with lingering resinous and spicy hop notes fading gradually into a clean, dry aftertaste. No harsh bitterness or chemical edges persist; the bittering compounds resolve smoothly.
