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.

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.

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.

Fischer (Greuth) Rauchbier

Fischer Rauchbier is now brewed by Rittmayer in Hallerndorf and on my recent sampling it was much better than their Kellerbier with a light smokiness adding a touch of bitterness to the malty brew.
