Goldene Gans Maibock

Goldene Gans Maibock is an unfiltered amber example of the style with a creamy off-white head. There’s some light grain in the faint nose. The fairly balanced palate is grainy and features a peppery hops element. The lingering finish is semi-dry and semi-bitter.

Würzburger Hofbräu Frühjahrsfestbier

Würzburger Höfbräu Frühjahrsfestbier is deep golden with a creamy white head and light spicy hops in the malty nose. The balanced palate is richly malty but has fair spicy hopping to dry it out in the lingering semi-bitter finish.

Würzburger Hofbräu Hell

Würburger Hofbräu Hell is a balanced if somewhat bland malty brew which is well-suited for those averse to hops. Their signature Pils is still heading towards a Helles and the better bet if looking for more flavor.
