Winter Alt

◎ Aussehen

The beer holds a deep amber hue that catches light like aged glass, clear and luminous without haze. A modest tan head forms and recedes steadily, leaving thin traces of lacing on the glass. Carbonation is gentle and restrained, befitting a beer meant to unfold at cellar temperature.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with warm amber malt and caramel notes, grounded and inviting without aggression. A restrained spice blend emerges—hints of cinnamon and subtle warming spices—woven into the grain rather than asserting themselves independently. The overall impression is cosy and introspective, with no sharp edges or aggressive hop character.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and malt-centric, with rich amber malt flavours building through the mid-palate. Spicing sits integrated rather than prominent, adding complexity without dominating the grain character. Bitterness is restrained at 26 IBU, allowing the malt sweetness and dryness to balance in the mouth, finishing dry but not austere.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and clean, with the spicing and malt lingering briefly before fading. The 6.5% alcohol sits undetectable, neither warming nor overwhelming the aftertaste.
