Göller IPA
Brewery: Göller
Town: Zeil am Main
Style: IPA 7%
Color: unfiltered amber
Head: ivory, rocky
Nose: honey, Lemon Drops hops
Body: full
Palate: richly malty, a touch of honey, Lemon Drops hops
Finish: lingering
Impression: Gorgeous pour with an ample rocky head and some honey and Lemon Drops hops in the nose. It’s richly malty and at 7% it’s more in the double IPA mold. Even after a couple of Bocks it’s not particularly hoppy, especially for the style. It’s also not as dry as I’d hoped. The local market dictates what a brewery produces and in this case an IPA might be too out of their wheelhouse. A rare miss from this very consistent brewery.
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
