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.

Mild rauchiger Antrunk mit wenig Herbe. Die Rauchigkeit wird nicht stärker sondern verharrt auf seinem milden, gerade noch erkennbarem niveau. Süffig, mild, im Abgang wird die rauchige komponente durch eine aufkommende Süße in den Vordergrund gestellt. 7/8/8/9//8

An unclear orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet wheaty combined with notes of banana, while the flavor is plainly sweet wheaty.

Das Bier riecht malzig-würzig aber auch alkoholisch. Zu dem würzigen Aroma im Antrunk gesellt sich im Mittelteil noch eine dezente Süße und ein kräftiges malziges Aroma. Im Nachgeschmack ist es zwar noch leicht röstmalzern, sonst aber extrem wässrig und nicht gelungen. Ansonsten ist das Bier recht süffig und nicht zu verachten, was sich der Braumeister bei dem Nachgeschmack gedacht hat steht allerdings in den Sternen. Test vom 19.1.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 10,10,12,6,8,10 - 9,60

Der Geruch ist fruchtig-säuerlich, der Antrunk lasch fruchtig, erinnert zusammen mit dem langweiligen Mittelteil eher an Spülwasser oder gepantschten Tee. Ebenso lasch und wässrig ist der Nachgeschmack. Nach dem Trinken fragt man sich: War da was? Test vom 29.12.2005, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,5,11,3,8,5 - 6,15

Rerate from tap at Hopdogs birthday. Crunchy pilsnerish,
Grassy, dry, moreish.
Bottle
Light green-golden, low visible carbonation, big whipped cream head. Quite aromatic hop and subtly buttery yeast aroma. Blast of herbal and grassy bittering hops on top of a layer of slightly fruity straw malt. Carried away by dry grassy bitterness again far into the aftertaste. Sparkly fresh mouthfeel.

The aroma is slightly smoked, sweet and sour with some notes of beef jerkey. The color is a hazy amber and it has a fine but disappearing head. The flavor is fantastic of smoke, malt, beef jerkey, and hops with a dry woody end. A really good beer.
