Description
The first real Cretan beer was a result of Dr Bernd Brink, a German mathematician based in Scotland. He came to Crete and, as a German might, wanted to bring to the island above all a genuine German beer. So the Rethymnian Brewery was set up.

Bottle in 🇬🇷 from a shop next to a petrol station. Amber colour, aromatic malty nose. The beer is soft grainy, malty caramel. Tastes nearly as the “Dunkel” I had yesterday. Not much bitterness. Nice soft caramel, hints of malty grain. Creamy malty end.
