Steinlager Classic

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden yellow with excellent clarity and bright light transmission. A fine, persistent white head forms with good retention and delicate lacing down the glass. Carbonation is evident and well-integrated, lending visual liveliness to the pale body.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced fresh-cut green grass and herbaceous notes from the Green Bullet hops, grown in Nelson at high southern latitude. Light, clean malt backbone supports without dominating, while the overall impression is bright, verdant, and refreshingly herbaceous rather than floral or spicy.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters clean and dry with a lean malt profile that allows hop character to lead. Mid-palate develops a tangy, grassy bitterness that builds steadily without harshness, finishing bone-dry with crisp noble-hop minerality. The 22 IBU bitterness is well-proportioned and integrated, creating a balanced, thirst-quenching profile.

◑ Abgang

Dry and refreshing with a lingering herbal-grassy note that persists gently on the palate. The aftertaste remains clean and tangy without astringency, inviting the next sip.
