The bright, golden color of our Winterfestbier brightens the dark depths of winter. A lengthy maturation period gives this beer its full-bodied flavor. Offered seasonally, this beer is brewed with a different, unique hop variety each time.

Light, malty, mildly hoppy. Clean and smooth, a bit boring.

A golden beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has maltyness, light grain and honey. Taste has smooth maltyness, light bitterness. Medium bodied, quite smooth. Simple and pure. Very enjoyable, the glass is empty almost immediately.

0.5 l bottle from 'Biermarket.de', best before October 2022. Clear, golden with a medium large, foamy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, slightly malty aroma of grains, light straw and traces of honey. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter taste of grains, some straw and a touch of honey, followed by a short, gently bitter, minimally grassy finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Decent Festbier, good example of one of my least favourite styles.
