St. Laurentius

This refreshing German Leichtbier offers an elevated sensory experience, transforming a lean lager base with the vibrant additions of lemon and yuzu. The profile opens with an immediate burst of citrus zest, layering sharp lemon brightness with the exotic, floral complexity of yuzu. Beneath the fruit, a delicate thread of crackery malt provides a clean, supporting structure. Despite its low alcohol content, the beer maintains a crisp, flavorful presence on the palate. It is exceptionally crushable, balancing a light graininess with an acidic, citrus-forward snap that lingers into a bone-dry, thirst-quenching finish, perfect for hot weather enjoyment.

Appearance. Pale straw to light yellow (SRM 2-3). Distinctly hazy, contrary to the standard brilliant clarity of the base style. Moderate white head with average persistence and light lacing.

Aroma. High intensity of fresh lemon zest and aromatic yuzu. Low grainy-sweet, crackery malt aroma sits in the background. Clean fermentation profile with no yeast esters; hop aroma is low, providing only a faint floral hint behind the dominant citrus.

Taste. Initial impression is a sharp, refreshing citrus snap of lemon juice and yuzu zest. Low grainy-sweet malt flavor supports the acidity. Medium-low hop bitterness is present but softened by the fruit's tartness. Clean, well-lagered fermentation character leads to a very dry finish with a light, lingering citrus skin aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Very light body with a crisp, thin texture. High carbonation provides a prickly, effervescent sensation on the tongue. No alcohol warmth. Refreshing and highly attenuated with zero astringency.
