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.

0.375 l bottle from 'Bierothek', best before December 2025. Very dark ruby to black with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently fruity, a little vinous aroma of raisins, prunes, molasses, port and chocolate. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, gently fruity, roasty and a bit boozy taste of molasses, chocolate, coffee, raisins, prunes, port and vanilla, followed by a long, gently roasty-bitter, slightly boozy finish. Full body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Delicious brew, fairly intense and complex, great mouthfeel, so saturating. Oh my.

33cl can from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Now simply called Landbier (I hope it's the same). Pours light blonde, transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is of cereal and honey, floral. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is medium sweet, well balanced. Final is average.

Great version of the style. Cloudy lemon looking, but just tastes super clean, light bodied buy enough chewy to balance everything. Gollem amstelstraat

Bottle from House Of Trembling Madness. Clear golden body with a thick off-white head that holds well. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of bread and berries. Flavour of caramel and earth. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. A solid beery beer.

Deep amber with a frothy, off-white head. Big banana and apricot aroma. Taste is bittersweet the whole way through, a mix of very ripe banana sweetness and grainy bitterness. Big, heavy body, smooth, yeasty. Not particularly complex but does it’s thing well. Tasty.

Gold with a frothy, white head. Subtle floral aroma with a touch of fresh grains. Taste is mildly bitter with a white-bread sweetness around the edges. Great chewiness, balanced carbonation, refreshing. Simple, classical Landbier done well. Nice!
