Sour Ale 3.5 º

Schneeeule

This vibrant Gose-style ale, infused with fresh cucumber and aromatic dill flowers, offers a garden-fresh sensory experience. The aroma opens with an intense wave of crisp cucumber skin and the delicate, herbal-floral scent of dill, layered over a backdrop of bready wheat and a subtle, clean lactic tartness. On the palate, a bright acidity intertwines with a moderate salt character that enhances the refreshing cucumber flavors, evoking a sophisticated, savory effervescence. A light graininess persists through the bone-dry, mouthwatering finish, making for an exceptionally crisp and restorative interpretation of this historical saline wheat beer style.

Appearance. SRM 3-4. Deep yellow with a moderate to full haze. Presents a tall, frothy white head with good retention and tight bubbles. Highly effervescent.

Aroma. Moderate intensity. Distinctive fresh cucumber and floral dill notes dominate, supported by a light bready and doughy malt backbone. A faint lemony acidity and a clean, mineral sea-salt character are present. No hop aroma or diacetyl.

Taste. Initial impression is sharply tart and refreshing. Moderate bready wheat malt flavors provide a foundation for bright cucumber and herbal dill flower notes. Bitterness is very low. A light salt character is noticeable but not overt, adding a round, savory dimension. Finishes bone-dry with lingering acidity and a crisp, botanical aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a high, effervescent carbonation level. The salt provides a slight tingly, mouthwatering sensation. Very refreshing with no alcohol warmth.
