Schmitt-Bräu Urstoff (brewed by Günther-Bräu)

Schmitt-Bräu Urstoff is contract brewed by Günther-Bräu in Burgunstadt but is available on tap at the old brewery in Scheßlitz along with two house beers brewed on site. It's in the Altfränkisches Lager style with an amber hue and restrained hops mingling with the amply malty base. The lingering finish is semi-dry and semi-bitter.
