This modern take on a Vienna Lager showcases a beautiful interplay between tradition and innovation. Brewed with German Vienna malt, Dry Dock delivers a rich foundation of toasted bread and subtle biscuit. While fermented with Norwegian Kveik yeast to maintain a clean, crisp profile, it retains a hint of fruitiness that complements the unique Triumph hops. These hops provide a delicate floral and spice character with faint citrus and orchard fruit undertones. The result is a balanced, copper-hued lager that honors the elegant, dry-finishing heritage of the style while offering a nuanced, slightly brighter aromatic profile than traditional continental examples.
Appearance.Luminous reddish-amber with brilliant clarity. Pours with a large, persistent, off-white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass.
Aroma.Moderately intense malt aroma featuring prominent toasty and bready-rich accents. Very low fruity esters from the yeast blend into a subtle floral and spicy hop presence. The fermentation character is remarkably clean, mimicking a traditional cold-conditioned lager.
Taste.The palate leads with an elegant, soft malt complexity characterized by rich, toasty flavors without heavy caramel or roast. A firm hop bitterness emerges mid-palate to ensure a balanced, fairly dry finish. The aftertaste lingers with a pleasant mix of bready malt and low herbal, spicy hop notes.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a smooth, gentle creaminess. Moderate carbonation provides a crisp lift on the tongue without being prickly. No noticeable alcohol warmth.
