This very special beer specialty is named after its origin, because our brewery is located directly at the foot of the famous pilgrimage site "Maria Ehrenberg" in the Rhön region.
The ''Pilgerstoff'' matures in our cold beer cellars into a full-bodied and perfectly rounded masterpiece for at least 8 weeks. It presents itself in a clear dark amber colour, strong roasted malt flavors and a velvety soft foam crown.

Tap at Gasthof zum Biber. Clear chestnut. Roasted, malt, melanoidin, metallic. Creamy buttery, but it is backed by bitterness. I like metallic butter beer. This is metallic butter beer.

500ml bottle from our trip to Frankfurt. Nice deep autumnal amber colour with a large, pillowy off-white head. Nutty leafy tangents with a nestled Vienna malt sweetness. Fits the mood.

Bottle shared, purchased from yok-yok. Nicely balanced caramely bready biscuity notes are present both in aroma and taste, combined with slightly grassy, herbal hops and a moderate bitterness. I actually dig this pretty much.

Bottle picked up from Sulzberger Bierhaus, Pffafenhofen an der Ilm and consumed at home Monday 15th August 2022. Pours dark amber, good clarity, an off white head. Malt forward with a nice softness, a little caramel seeps through, no hoppiness, bitterness is light, it's a nice beer.

Good, stable, dense and ultra-fine light-cream head over Bernsteinfarbiges beer. Chestnut, hazelnuts, sweet bread, autumn leaves. Chestnut, sweet dark bread, sweet malts. Bit of liquorice, sweetroot, toast. Finish sports some dry chocolate. Not very carbonated, not very well-bodied, quite slick. Vienna, if a tad too much towards the sweet side. Thx to Stef!

Bottle from HoTM. It pours clear brown with a decent beige head. The aroma is earthy, leafy, brown bread, raisin bread, light caramel, doughy, toasted brown sugars and malt loaf. The taste is initially dry, toothy, doughy brown bread, earthy, light toffee/caramel, dried fruits, fruit cake, touch to spice, rivita and pencil shavings with a fulsome, sweet finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Nice bitter - sweet balance. Drinks well. Decent stuff.
