Description
Centuries of brewing tradition, the best ingredients and strict compliance with the Bavarian Purity Law of 1516 are quality that you can taste with every sip! The Rittmayer Brewery is one of the oldest breweries in Forchheimer Land. The family business dates back to 1422. The brewery even received its own coat of arms certificate from the Count of Kulmbach because of its good beer.

In spring 2012, our new brewery on the outskirts of Hallerndorf went into operation right next to our filling center. It is one of the most innovative medium-sized breweries in all of Germany.

Huge, dense & thick cream-coloured head, stable, over real bernsteinfarbiges beer. Bread, sweet & coloured malts, autumn leaves, breadcrust, 'hot' malts. Sweet, bready, breadcrust (short of Maillard), leafy. However the maltsugars remain, the finish is going drier. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, quite slick, sticky feel. Classis in the Vienna style, if unfiltered. Txs to Stef!

Ambar oscura, limpia, de espuma de tamaño y consistencia normales. Aroma a malta tostada con notas ahumadas. En boca es ligera de cuerpo, de paso fácil, algo aguada quizás. Buen sabor deliciosamente malteado con notas tostadas, y de caramelo y café.

Flaska från Bierothek. Gyllengul aningen disig vätska med medelhögt vitt skum. Rejäl kropp, mjuk och rund med säd, bröd och mjöl och rejält humlat med höig och gräsig humle med lite harzig ädelhumlekaraktär. Mycket gott

Dorada consistentemente nebulosa. Bonita espuma muy cremosa de buena retención. Muchos esteres frutales en el aroma, destacando claramente el plátano. En boca tiene cuerpo moderado, buen punto de gas. Sabor muy agradable, de base de ricas maltas de trigo y claro tono dulce y frutal, con mucho plátano. Buena hefe.

Rittmayer Hell je ona piva koja ne viče nego šapće: “Smiri se, sve je u redu.” Lagana, čista i toliko pitka da nestane brže nego objašnjenje zašto je nestala – klasični njemački helles koji ne komplicira, ali zna posao.

Flaska från Bierothek. Aningen disig gyllengul vätska högt vitt skum. Rejält humlad med druvig och riktigt besk humle. Den söta kroppen behövs för balansen och resultatet blir en pepprig och kryddig old school östkust-IPA. Riktigt lång eftersmak. Kul även om beskan slår över.

Dorada limpia, brillante. Espuma de tamaño y consistencia medios. Aroma malteado cereal. Muy suave en boca, de escaso gas y apenas amargor. Sabor malteado de carácter cereal. Sencilla y muy bebible. Sin destacar en nada.
