The name Schild Brau essentially means “shield Beer” in German. The Schild Brau Amber is our flagship beer crafted the same as the special beers of Munich in the Vienna Lager category. Our beer uses the same malts to attain a perfect balance between malty sweetness and a firm bitterness. This beer has been with Millstream since we opened our doors in 1985. The repeated awards that we have received for this beer only confirms why many people consider this beer to be synonymous with Millstream Brewery at its best.

Can pour from Total Wine & More, Brentwood. Hazy, honey brown, nice sparkle, thin cap of head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong caramel, toast and grain. Taste mirrors aroma with addition of hints of fruit. Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Good strength of aroma and taste for ABV.

From old tasting notes. Amber orange hue with lots of small bubbles leading to a fuzzy beige head. Pleasant floral hop aroma with a perfumy sweetness. Mildly sweet toasted malt flavor. Slightly biting finish has a nice hoppy character. Decent.

Draft. Amber body. Off-white, short head, quickly diminishing. Aroma of grain, caramel, bread. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, chalky texture, lively carbonation. Raw grain taste with secondary flavors of caramel and nuts. Some floral hop flavors, but not much.

bottle thanks to Danny at the Tally tasting. Pours light brown with a medium off white head. Aroma is doughy, some yeast and toasted malts. Flavor is rather bland, lightly toasted malt, some brown sugar.
