Firstep

This American Lager offers a unique sensory twist, overlaying a clean, refreshing base with a pungent botanical complexity. The crisp, grainy sweetness of the malt provides a neutral canvas for the distinctive addition of Rakau hops and cannabis terpenes. Aromatically, it leads with intense resinous, dank, and herbal notes, complemented by the subtle apricot and orchard fruit nuances typical of the Rakau variety. On the palate, it remains light and highly carbonated, delivering a sharp, dry finish where the earthy, green terpene profile lingers against a background of soft, cracker-like malt, resulting in a modern, hop-forward interpretation of a classic style.

Appearance. Very pale straw (2 SRM); brilliant clarity with a white, frothy head that exhibits moderate to low persistence.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity aromatic profile dominated by resinous, herbal, and dank cannabis-like notes from terpenes. Secondary hop character includes stone fruit, specifically apricot and peach, from the Rakau. Malt remains low, presenting as a faint grainy sweetness. Clean fermentation with no esters.

Taste. Initial impression is crisp and neutral, quickly followed by a wave of herbal and resinous terpene flavors. Low grainy malt sweetness provides a brief mid-palate balance. Hop flavor is moderate, featuring earthy and light fruity notes of peach. Bitterness is low to medium-low, well-integrated. The finish is dry, clean, and refreshing with a lingering herbal aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high carbonation providing a sharp, refreshing carbonic bite. No alcohol warmth; very smooth and clean with no astringency.
