Beer Profile
sopp opera
Sopp Opera is a 5% ABV Rauchbier melding smoked wheat malt with savory, pizza-inspired ingredients. The nose reveals gentle smokiness layered with aromatic herbs like Sicilian oregano and basil, alongside a subtle hint of wildflower honey. On the palate, the wheat's German oak-smoked character mingles with savory notes of hot Soppressata and a touch of Calabrian chili heat, balanced by traditional German hops for a mild bitterness. The semolina and pizza elements add an unexpected doughy richness, while the honey lends a restrained sweetness. Lagered over five weeks, this complex yet approachable beer delivers a refreshing, zesty, and lightly smoky experience evocative of pizza night flavors.
