A definitive house favorite, our Franconian-inspired Kellerbier is back on draft and in 12oz cans. For that extra depth of malt character we seek, we built this one from Epiphany Pilsner and Munich malts, and treated the whole thing to a double decoction mash regimen. Hopped with German Hallertau, and packaged slightly younger than our other lager offerings, this beer is our love letter to the Kellerbier tradition.
Orange-amber in color, we taste floral, zesty orange peel, slightly peppery hops and a malt forward deeply toasted, honey-glazed country bread crust base to balance the scales. Also featuring a slightly elevated ABV at 5.8%, for a fuller, rounder drinking experience in the cooler weather.

Something like noble hops. Some hay and attic like hop dust. Golden pour with great head and lacing. Great beer for style. Crisp and decent bitter finish-shit's got body. Tap at Fulton brewery.
