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.

Rather gaudy swingtop bottle, they seem to be proud of their three European beer star wins. Pors red with low carbonation and a nice off-white lacing head. Nutty smoke aroma. Mellow mouthfeel, low on carbonation, but the bottle was losing pressure before I opened it it seems. chewy. Roasted entry, elegant smokyness layers on top, bacon, some umami in the back of the throat, strangely enough I keep thinking about boiled eggs. Light beechwood note stays on the palate. Not bad at all.
