Taste: Caramel Nuts, Bisquit, Toasted Malt
Notes: A rarely found style originating from Nuremberg in Franconia. The red color comes from the unique Francoinian malt, as well as an extended decoction and wort boiling. Double decocted, naturally carbonated, and conditioned in horizontal lagering tanks for two months.

Brighton draught 12/17/24. Deep amber-maple. Clear. Medium-sized, dark beige head. Fruity and just a hint of roast. Clean, snappy, lots of mineral and herbaceous, spicy hops. Lingering baguette and butter toffee (no diacetyl). Malty, lightly to moderately toasty with mild berry and herbal notes. Pretty good depth of malt and strong attenuation. Notch is good about not overdoing the specialty malt and this is no exception, though there is a hint of soap and or bitter toast on the very end.

Pours beautiful garnet into an English pint. Caramel aromas. Soft with caramel, golden syrup and earthy muti-grain bread upfront turning to earth and bark in the dry, medium length finish.
