Hütt’n Hausbräu Rot
This Rotbier is brewed by Rittmayer Hallerndorf and while not a world beater, it’s well made with a nice spicy element. It’s certainly better than a few of the Rotbiers in town and has a lingering semi-dry, semi-bitter finish.
Wagner Kupferstich Rotbier
Wagner Kupfterstich Rotbier is a textbook Red Beer aside from its lighter copper hue. It's rich toasted malt palate and nose are offset well with a light spicy caramel note and enough hops to dry it out nicely in the lingering finish.
Bierprinzessin Hassberg Rotbier
Bierprinzessin Hassberg Rotbier is an unfiltered amber beer which was brewed by the Hassberg Beer Princesses for the festival. It’s a lovely dry hoppy beer in the Craft Beer vein but retains a distinct Franconian flavor. This was on tap at the Genussfestival 2024 in Ebern.
Jürgens Rotbier
Jürgens Rotbier is a balanced richly malty Rotbier with a nice spicy character and aromatic hops in the nose. The lingering finish is semi-dry and semi-bitter.
Geyer Rotbier at Felsenkeller
Geyer Rotbier is a balanced spicy brew with a clean, dry semi-bitter finish. It's perfect for an afternoon at Geyers Felsenkeller.
Veldensteiner Rotbier
Veldensteiner Rotbier is a nice mix of malt and hops with a clean, dry finish that's perfectly bitter.
Tucher Original Nürnberger Rotbier at Opernhaus
Tucher Original Nürnberger Rotbier is a balanced malty red lager with a lingering finish.
Bruderherz Roter Lui
Bruderherz Roter Lui is an unfiltered balanced red lager with fair hopping for a Rotbier but lacks some harmony overall, especially in the lingering finish.
Tucher Mautkeller Rotes Lagerbier unfiltriert
Tucher Mautkeller Rotes Lagerbier unfiltered is a primarily malty red lager brewed at Tucher's brewpub in the center of the city. Its finish is sticky and in my roundup of the town's Rotbiers, finished last.
