Altenberger Brauhaus Schwarzbier

Altenberger Brauhaus Schwarzbier is one gorgeous example of the style, nearly black with a rocky tan head and roasty nose. It’s both balanced and supremely dry with a light bitter roast that is surprisingly enticing. The lingering finish is again quite dry but not overly bitter. Worth the trip in itself.

Altenberger Brauhaus Märzen

Altenberger Brauhaus Märzen is a rich spicy example of the style with more dryness than is typical, especially in the lingering finish.

Altenberger Brauhaus Hell

Altenberger Brauhaus Hell is more in the Vollbier style than a Munich Helles. It's malty and grainy with a lingering dry finish due to the ample hopping.

Pyraser Kellerbier

Pyraser Kellerbier is a great example at 18 IBU of a beer not needing bitterness to attain a moreish dry finish. On tap at Hütt'n, it was a gorgeous beer to behold and even more of a joy to drink.

Hütt’n Hausbräu Hell

 This Helles is brewed by Rittmayer Hallerndorf and the least interesting of the three Hausbiers. If all you drink is light beer, this balanced brew will do the trick. It’s got a zesty element and a lingering semi-dry, semi-bitter finish.
