Impression: Finally got a Glenk beer which sounds either contract brewed or at least put into bottles for them, by whom is not clear on the bottle. For some time, Brauerei Stöckel in Hintergereuth produced the beer for them but from their current website, it appears brewing has resumed. If this Pils is their best, I’m not sure it’s such a big deal. It’s an easy enough drinking beer but not overly flavorful or what I’m looking for in a Pils. It’s brewed partially with hop extract and lacks any real hop presence or at least anything outside a generic one.
Next beer or back to the beer list.
