Donator

◎ Aussehen

Donator presents a pale golden hue reminiscent of forest honey, achieved through its extended 50-week maturation in the lager cellar. The unfiltered presentation yields a light cloudiness from residual yeast, while a fine, persistent head demonstrates excellent foam retention and delicate lacing.

◌ Aroma

The nose reveals a delicate plum character with subtle echoes of young Madeira, a distinctive signature of extended lagering. Beneath this fruit-forward profile lies a gentle Malz foundation with honeyed undertones, inviting without overwhelming.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with a velvety, Malz-driven sweetness before unfolding into a full-bodied, round profile dominated by dark fruit character. The 22 IBU provides restrained bittering that integrates smoothly rather than asserting itself, allowing the complex malt and fruity interplay to remain prominent through the mid-palate.

◑ Abgang

The finish is warm and lingering, with the alcohol at 8% ABV present but well-integrated into the overall structure. A lasting malt sweetness and subtle fruit echo persist on the palate.
