Kellerbier from Brauerei Hummel

6.1/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 4 Overall 6.5
An amber beer with a small disappearing beige head. Both the aroma and the flavor is sweet with notes of caramel and hops the flavor also has notes of coriander, before a good dry hoppy end sets in. But the body is thin. Thanks to Jez (Rauchbier) for this one.

Gravity, barrel. Ceramic mug. Thick head. Herbal, hay-like hop aroma. Great character - loads of fresh, juicy hop with light bread crust accents. Very tasty.

Sampled draught at Brauerei-Gaststätte Hummel, Merkendorf.
Orange-amber, firm head. Dry and malty, rounded and soft with chewy mouthfeel. Long salty bitterish finish. There might be more charming beer gardens, and even better beers in Franconia, but I can easily picture myself living in Merkendorf...
