Impression: The Wilde Rose may not brew their own beer but the family recipes have reportedly been passed down and are utilized. They were previously contract-brewed by Franken Bräu but they’ve shifted to Brauerei Trunk out of Vierzehnheiligen. After my recent visit, I can say they are doing a fine job and there are few places as pleasant to drink a beer than in this leafy Bierkeller. This Kellerbier is a lovely one, balanced but with fair floral hopping in both the nose and palate. The finish is lingering, dry and bitter. Quite nice.
Next beer or back to the beer list.
