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.

I have a feeling people are rating two different beers. The Kellbier and Kellbier Dunkles. I am rating the latter. Dark brown color, frothy white head. Caramel and milk chocolate in the nose. The mouth is very malty. The depth isn’t there though. Light finish. Ok, but not up to their other beers.

Bottle, 5.0%. Fruity aroma, a little old-smelling. Hazy copper colour. Small stable off-white head. The flavour has a distinct toffee note. A little buttery, but not the usual diacetyl. Thin mouthfeel. OK bitterness. The toffee is too weird for me.

Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. A slightly hazy, orange-golden beer with an off-white head. Fruity and malty nose with hints of banana and butterscotch, but not at annoying levels. Sweet, caramel flavor with fruits and some bitterness. Nice bitterness in the finish with some malty sweetness to balance it. Full-bodied and nicely carbonated. Almost sticky sweet actually, yet again not in an annoying way. A quite nice beer that I wouldn’t mind drinking again. 090821
