Glenk Bräu Festbier
Brewery: Glenk Bräu (brewed by Becher-Bräu across the road)
Town: Bayreuth
Style: Festbier 5.2%
Color: amber
Head: white, ample
Nose: richly malty, hint of grain
Body: medium
Palate: balanced, malty
Finish: lingering, semi-dry, semi-bitter
Served: from a bottle bought in Bayreuth
Impression: Though I was unimpressed with their Pils, I decided to pick up their Festbier and Bock since I was in Bayreuth shopping. Though a contract brew from Becher Bräu, this is a fair enough Festbier with a nice amber hue and rich malty nose. The richly malty palate has enough hops (even if extract) to dry it out in the lingering finish.
Next beer or back to the beer list.
