Aktien Zwick’l Kellerbier on tap
Brewery: Bayreuther Bierbrauerei
Town: Bayreuth
Style: Kellerbier 5.3%
Color: unfiltered amber
Head: off-white, rocky
Nose: mix of grain and hops
Body: medium
Palate: balanced, malty, very slight roast, some grain, underlying hops
Finish: lingering, semi-dry, semi-bitter
Served: on tap at the Herzogkeller in Bayreuth
Impression: Due to their extensive distribution network, this is a beer I can get in Munich. This is the first time I’ve had it on tap and it’s serviceable but similar to the Hell, it’s not as dry as remembered. While not an amazing Kellerbier, it’s certainly quite drinkable with a lingering semi-bitter finish. It’s not going to become my go to session beer but I could see this as a good pizza beer. It’s readily available in Munich and better than the local Kellerbiers from Spaten and Hacker.
Next beer or back to the beer list.
