Description
Berghoff’s history as a beer brand goes back over 120 years, and in that time it has developed a reputation of high quality and consistency. The first batch of Berghoff beer was brewed in Fort Wayne, Indiana in 1887 by Herman Berghoff and his three brothers. Herman’s desire to expand the market for the family’s beer led him to sell the product at the Chicago World’s Fair where it received high acclaim. Since then, Berghoff has continued its success and relevance in the Chicago market and beyond.
As the craft beer market has evolved, the brand has received fresh, exciting updates. Berghoff changed its brewing location and is now proudly brewed at Point Brewery in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. Berghoff has also refreshed itself with updated recipes and packaging. With consulting from brewing experts Randy Mosher and John Hannafan, Berghoff’s new, top-notch beers are ready to satisfy consumer demand. As the brewery looks to the future, Berghoff beer will continue to evolve as trends change, but will always maintain its roots as an authentic German-style brew whose history and tradition will never be forgotten

Somewhat sweet, with some individual spices in the nose. Taste is sugary, but resolves to a note of honey or molasses. A bit of root beer "extract" at first, then sassafras or other bark in the background. Lesser burn in the aftertaste. Some marshmallow resolves in the aftertaste.

Aroma is standard root beer with a hint of putrid garbage. Flavor is like nose. Body is a touch thin. A little alcohol warmth. One and done.

@ ORD. Dull amber and slightly hazy. Minty and crackery bitterness. Lots of rich toasty malts. Balanced finish is on the malty side. Ok, but a bit dull.
