The carefully selected ingredients, a traditional fermentation process and four weeks of cold storage set this speciality apart from the rest. Its grainy, full-bodied character and mild bitterness make the Stiegl Spezial a particularly rich alternative. 12.5°

Shipped from Beer Cartel, Sydney. 500ml bottle into glass. Sweet/spicy malt nose. Clear golden beer with solid creamy white head. Light carbonation. Easy drinking beer with grainy malty finish. Very late citric hops, quite delicious actually. This style of beer is designed to be drunk quickly and often I think.

Bottle. Deep gold with a white head. Grainy aroma, a little toasty, vague lemon and spices. Sweet and quite rich grainy and lightly toasted malt, not much bitterness but a bit spicy at the end. Not a lot of hops but there’s a harshness to them that’s not helpful. Not all that good.
