Altenberger Brauhaus Schwarzbier is one a balanced rich & fruity example of the style with a semi-dry lingering finish which is moreish.
Altenberger Brauhaus Schwarzbier is one gorgeous example of the style, nearly black with a rocky tan head and roasty nose. It’s both balanced and supremely dry with a light bitter roast that is surprisingly enticing. The lingering finish is again quite dry but not overly bitter. Worth the trip in itself.
Altenberger Brauhaus Märzen is a rich spicy example of the style with more dryness than is typical, especially in the lingering finish.
Altenberger Brauhaus Hell is more in the Vollbier style than a Munich Helles. It's malty and grainy with a lingering dry finish due to the ample hopping.
