Hauf Weihnachts-Bier

Brewery: Hauf
Town:
Dinkelsbühl
Style:
Festbier 5.4%
Color:
golden
Head:
white, dissipating
Nose:
malty, grainy
Body: medium

Palate:
malty, grainy
Finish: lingering, sticky

Served: from a bottle bought in the area

Impression: A disappointing Festbier with a pale hue and dissipating head. It’s a mostly malty affair with a sticky lingering finish. It’s well within its best by date (nearly three months) but certainly well past Christmas. I’d buy again closer to the holiday but otherwise give it a pass. It’s certainly not anywhere near as good as their regular Festbier.

Next beer or back to the beer list.
