Nano Cinco
La Barberie

Cours D'école is a refreshing New Zealand Pilsner that showcases the unique interplay between traditional lager techniques and the ancient grain Fonio. This collaboration between Nano Cinco and La Barberie pours a remarkably pale straw with a gentle, inviting haze. The sensory experience is driven by the Pacifica hops, which offer bright bursts of orange zest and delicate floral notes. The addition of Fonio enhances the aromatic profile with subtle layers of melon and tropical fruit. On the palate, a soft, bready malt foundation supports a clean bitterness, leading to a crisp, dry finish. It is a modern, sessionable lager that balances rustic grains with vibrant Southern Hemisphere hop character.

Appearance. Straw to pale gold (2-3 SRM). Large, creamy white head with moderate retention. Unlike traditional examples, it exhibits a slight haze attributed to the rustic Fonio grain.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Modern hop aromatics lead with orange zest and honeydew melon. Subtle tropical notes and floral hints are present. The malt provides a low, neutral bready and cracker-like support. Clean fermentation with no sulfur or esters.

Taste. Clean, hop-forward flavors of orange zest, melon, and tropical fruit. Low bready malt flavor provides a brief grainy sweetness before a smooth, moderate hop bitterness takes over. The balance is bitter but well-integrated. Finishes dry and crisp with a lingering citrusy and floral aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a notably soft and smooth texture. Moderate to high carbonation provides a refreshing prickle. No astringency or alcohol warmth.
