Dortmunder Export 5.4 º

Icarus Brewing
Carton Brewing Company

A sophisticated German Helles Exportbier born from a collaboration between Icarus and Carton, Augie Steiner showcases a robust malt backbone. The utilization of Canadian IPA Malt and American Victory Malt creates an assertive aromatic profile of toasted biscuit and warm bread. This malty foundation is expertly balanced by a heavy-handed addition of Hallertauer Mittelfruh hops, contributing elegant floral notes and a whisper of herbal spice. The palate is characterized by a harmonious interplay of grainy sweetness and a firm, structural bitterness, leading to a clean, medium-dry finish with a classic flinty roundness typical of the Dortmunder style.

Appearance. Deep gold (approx. 5 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Supports a dense, persistent white head that leaves consistent lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity with a focused grainy-sweet and distinctly biscuity malt character from the Victory malt. Pronounced floral and spicy hop notes from the Hallertauer Mittelfruh are well-integrated. Clean fermentation profile with no esters or diacetyl.

Taste. Initial impression of rich, toasted bread and biscuit. The malt flavor is balanced by moderate floral hop flavors and a medium bitterness that persists into the finish. Finishes medium-dry and clean, with a lingering aftertaste of both sweet grain and spicy hops. Features a characteristic mineral roundness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, mellow texture on the palate. Moderate carbonation. A very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present without any harshness or astringency.
