Held-Bräu Bock
Brewery: Held-Brau
Town: Oberailsfeld
Style: Hellerbock
Color: light amber
Head: rocky, white, massive
Nose: grain, hops
Body: full
Palate: richly malty, grainy, hoppy
Finish: clean, semi-bitter
Served: from a bottle bought locally
Impression: This was a darker than imagined Hellerbock and hoppier as well. The head was beyond impressive. I’d taken multiple photos outside of it prior to snapping this one inside. It was very well-balanced and drier than most recent Hellerbocks. I was a bit over the style by the time I got to this one, but I must say it was one of the better ones I’ve had in 2021.
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
