Krug-Bräu Winterbier
Brewery: Krug-Bräu
Town: Breitenlesau
Style: dark Festbier
Color: unfiltered, deep chestnut
Head: off-white, rocky
Nose: rich malt, pumpernickel
Body: medium
Palate: malty, bready, slight roast, underlying hops
Finish: clean, semi-dry
Served: from a bottle bought in the area
Impression: I’d never seen this before and believe it’s a new beer. It seems to be an amped up (5.5%) version of their flagship Lager with a dark hue and malt forward palate. There’s some dark bready notes and touch of roast before the semi-dry finish. Nice.
Next beer or back to the beer list.

I'm an American living in Munich. Why? Well, I came for the beer but stayed for the girl. I'm very happily married to a German woman. Of course, the bonus of great beer certainly doesn't hurt. An avid love of hiking and finding new beers has led me to found beerwanderers, an information resource on beer hiking trails in Franconia with an emphasis on Franconian food specialties and the endless variety of amazing beer the region is renowned for. I also just published my first book Beer Hiking Bavaria which features 50 beer hikes in Bavaria. View all posts by beerwanderers
