Felsenbräu Felsator
Brewery: Felsenbräu
Town: Thalmannsfeld
Style: Doppelbock 7.5%
Color: unfiltered amber
Head: white, creamy
Nose: richly malty, dried fruit, raisin, apricot
Body: full
Palate: balanced, richly malty, raisin, dried apricot, underlying hops
Finish: lingering, semi-dry, bittersweet
Served: from a bottle bought at Landbier Paradies
Impression: The pour was initially worrisome but was fine in the end, developing a fair head and richly malty nose with both raisin and dried apricot. The rich palate follows in the same dried fruit vein and the lingering finish is surprisingly dry for 7.5%. Better than expected.
Next beer or back to the beer list.

I'm an American living in Munich and Bamberg. 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 published my first book Beer Hiking Bavaria which features 50 beer hikes in Bavaria and lead beer hiking experiences for those who love beer & nature. View all posts by beerwanderers
