Rittmayer Hallerndorfer Hefeweizen
Rittmayer Hallerndorfer Hefeweizen is a serviceable if somewhat bland example of the style.
Rittmayer Maibock
Rittmayer Maibock is one of the drier Hellerbocks I've come across. The combination of rich malt and obvious hops is something I wish more breweries would attempt. This is my favorite of the Rittmayer line-up.
Hennemann Bock Plus
Hennemann Bock Plus is their regular Bockbier Dunkel dry-hopped with Williamette, giving it some berry in the nose and palate. The finish is exceptionally dry and moreish.
Hennemann Bockbier Dunkel on tap
Hennemann Bockbier Dunkel is a rich unfiltered chestnut beauty with a gorgeous rocky tan head and rich malty palate tinged with burnt toffee. There are ample hops to make for a semi-dry bittersweet finish.
Rittmayer Landbier hell (Gartenkeller)
Rittmayer Landbier hell is a malty brew with enough hops to keep the finish semi-dry and semi-bitter.
Rittmayer Landbier hell
Rittmayer Landbier hell is generally a serviceable beer but on this occasion, it was a buttery mess.
