Pilsner 5.2 º

Brasserie Alpha

Libeccio presents a refreshing take on the German Pils, defined by a brisk, clean profile that honors its Mediterranean-wind namesake. The sensory experience is led by a sophisticated hop duo; the earthy spice of Saaz melds with the delicate floral and citrus notes of Saphir. This aromatic brightness sits atop a foundation of Continental Pilsner malt, offering lean hints of toasted cracker and light honey. The palate is sharply attenuated, delivering a firm, clean bitterness and a flinty, minerally snap. This lager finishes bone-dry and crisp, leaving a lingering trail of herbal hops and noble refinement.

Appearance. Brilliant straw to pale gold (3 SRM) with exceptional clarity. Topped by a dense, creamy white head with excellent retention and fine-beaded lacing.

Aroma. High hop intensity featuring a refined blend of spicy, herbal Saaz and the floral, slightly citrusy perfume of Saphir. Supported by a low, clean grainy-sweet malt character reminiscent of water crackers and fresh dough. Esters are absent, ensuring a pure fermentation profile.

Taste. Initial flash of bready malt is rapidly overtaken by an assertive, clean hop bitterness. Flavors of dried herbs and wildflowers dominate the mid-palate. The balance is decidedly bitter and crisp, leading into a very dry, refreshing finish with a lingering minerally quality and herbal aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a brisk, high carbonation that scrubs the palate. Crisp and clean with a faint flinty sharpness; no alcohol warmth or astringency is present.
