Pilsner 5.6 º

Augustiner-Bräu

This classic German Pils from Munich presents a brilliant, straw-gold appearance crowned by a persistent, creamy white head. The sensory profile is defined by a sophisticated interplay of floral and herbal German noble hops against a clean, doughy Pilsner malt backdrop. On the palate, a crisp, initial crackery sweetness is rapidly overtaken by a firm, refreshing bitterness that lingers into a bone-dry finish. While following the Bavarian tradition of a slightly softer mouthfeel, it remains remarkably spritzy and attenuated. The elegance of the noble hops provides a spicy complexity that underscores its status as a quintessential, clean-fermenting lager.

Appearance. Brilliant, pale straw-gold color with a tall, frothy white head that exhibits excellent retention and fine-beaded lacing.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity of noble hops, featuring elegant floral, spicy, and herbal notes. Supported by a light, clean Pilsner malt character reminiscent of fresh dough and toasted crackers with a faint hint of honey.

Taste. Leading with a crisp, grainy malt sweetness, the profile quickly transitions to a prominent herbal and spicy hop flavor. Bitterness is firm and clean, driving a very dry, refreshing finish. The aftertaste is long and bitter, featuring lingering floral hop qualities and a mineral-like crispness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high carbonation that creates a spritzy, lively sensation. Smooth and clean without any harshness or astringency, providing a refreshing, thirst-quenching character.
