Zwettler Original

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden amber with excellent clarity, reflecting light with a bright, translucent quality. A fine, persistent white head forms and clings steadily to the glass walls, indicating solid foam stability. Carbonation is moderate and even, typical of a traditional lager.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with clean, bread-like malt character and subtle toasted grain notes. Delicate honey and caramel sweetness emerge in the background, while a faint mineral quality—attributable to the granite bedrock water—adds freshness. Noble hop bitterness is restrained and refined, never aggressive.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is balanced and crisp, with a malty foundation that unfolds smoothly across the mid-palate. Caramel and honey notes provide gentle sweetness without cloying. Bitterness is low (22 IBU) and well-integrated, allowing the clean grain character and mineral undertone to dominate the finish.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and lingering, with the mineral profile from the Waldviertel water leaving a clean, crisp aftertaste. The moderate alcohol sits perfectly in the background, supporting a gentle drying sensation.
