Ulrich Martin Martini Bock from gravity dispense

Ulrich Martin is a traditional brewery lovingly restored by the man himself. The Martinibock is fantastic bock full of malt and dried apricot notes. This one from gravity dispense at Der Pelikan Best of Bock 2023 was extra dry.

Zum Goldenen Adler Doppelbock

A Doppelbock with a gorgeous deep amber hue and off-white creamy head. Lovely rich malty nose with a hint of burnt caramel. Palate is similar, making it a more of a sipper but balanced enough that I had three with lunch!

Hummel Festbier Dunkel

Hummel Festbier dunkel is a decent and interesting Festbier as I find it refreshing to see a dark one. Good balance and drinkability with just a hint of chocolate.
