Kulmbacher Kommunbräu Hexenbier is their April seasonal. This lightly smoky unfiltered chestnut brew is richly malty in both the nose and palate. The balanced palate is roasty with a hint of smoke with underlying hops peeking through as it warms. The lingering finish is semi-dry and semi-bitter.
Mönchshof Original Pils is one of their better offerings if not in the classic German Pils mold. It's balanced and maltier but there's still some hops in the mix.
Mönchshof Landbier is one of their best beers with a malty palate mixed with grain and hops and a lingering, semi-dry, semi-bitter finish.
Mönchshof Landbier is one of their best beers with a malty palate mixed with grain and hops and a lingering, semi-dry, semi-bitter finish.
Mönchshof Märzen is not only one of the palest in the style but also one of the blandest. A sticky malty beer.
Mönchshof Zwickel is a balanced if bland example of the style with a lingering finish which goes nowhere in particular.
Mönchshof Kellerbier is a balanced grainy example with a lingering semi-dry finish. Not bad but nothing special.
Mönchshof Maibock is a richly malty amber Bock with some caramel in both the nose and palate. The lingering finish is a touch too sticky to be anything special.
Mönchshof Weihnachts Festbier is a rich malty Christmas treat. It's not up there with the best but it passes the basic Festbier test.
Mönchshof Hell is a rather bland example of a Helles and sadly more available than their much more stellar Schwarzbier.
