Brauwastl Annafestbier

Brewery: Brauwastl
Town: Forchheim
Style: Festbier
Color: amber
Head: off-white, rocky
Nose: nice mix of malt & hops
Body: medium, soft
Palate: balanced, richly malty, great hop character
Finish: clean, semi-dry, semi-bitter

Served: on tap at the Brauwastl Keller at Annafest

Impression: The brewer took forever to pour it but an amazing looking brew with a massive super rocky head was the prize.  I’d had it the previous year but at the tale end of a long day/evening at Annafest. I liked it so much I made a plan to stop by briefly this year to resample as didn’t have time for a full visit. It’s by far the hoppiest beer at the fest but there’s lots of malt balance well into the moresishly dry finish.


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.
