Winterfestbier

As Wintergenuss, brewed by Brauerei Hofmark. Almost clear amber with a quickly disappearing head. Roasted malt, caramel, candy sugar, dark bread, some lemon zest, rye. Malty bready sweetness, mild dry bitterness. Medium bodied, oily texture, lively carbonated, dry malty caramely bittersweet finish. A very nice, hearty Wintermärzen. Very tasty!

Bernsteinfarben und klar. Cremiger Schaum. Süß malziger Geruch. Geschmacklich nicht ganz so süß und etwas leichter. Es kommen ergänzend bitter röstige Noten, Schwarzbrotkruste und ein Hauch Holz hinzu. Weich. Kommt für ein Festbier vergleichsweise leicht rüber. Das Etikett informiert über Alkoholgehalt, Stammwürze, die verwendeten Malz- und Hopfensorten und darüber das die Gärung in offenen Bottichen erfolgt. Lobenswert.

Huge thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Malty spicy aroma. Starts strong, malty, spicy. Some moldy-grasy notes as well. Light sourish touch. Finish woody-spicy-moldy. Interesting!

€-Flascherl (Dííík, další šperk ze zeleního ráje!): Rally deep golden, a bit unclear, visible carbonation, medium-sized firm and lacy white head, moderate sweetish-bitter aroma of bready malt, Munich malt plus a pinch of toasted (?) malt, mild but distinctive herbal-hayish hops underneath; moderate sweetish-bitter flavour, nearly medium bodied and - as expected - pretty soft; slightly lingering and quite soft malty and herbal-spicy finish. Dobré pivo z německé častí Šumavý...

bottle from the brewery's webshop. Deep golden colour with a brown touch, tall head. Aroma of beeswax candles. Malty with shy hints of nuts and caramel, lots of honey and beeswax. Shy but pleasant hoppy finish. Good!
