Impression: Kitzmann Bergkirchweih Festbier is richly malty as is typical of the style. Toasted malt intermingles with the underlying hops for an easy drinking festival treat. The lingering finish is just a tad sticky for me, but not unusual in this richly malty style. With my roasted duck, and as it warmed, the hops peeked out a little more assertively. Though the Kitzmann Bergkirchweihbier may not have been as enjoyable as the Entla’s Giesela Festbier, it was perhaps truer to style.
