About
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.

Frothy head, fading away slowly. Soapy aroma with orange. Malty soapy flavor. Hay-like hoppy finish. Disappointing. 4 3 5 2 8 = 2.2. Re-rate: creamy, hoppy vanilla-like flavor. Malty. Thick mouthfeel. Fairly low on carbon. Flowery. Typical Franconian flavors, but clean, except for a bit of boiled milk next to the hopbitterness in the aftertaste.

Orange color, slightly hazy. Caramel and oak in the aroma. Sweetish caramelly flavor. Some distant hoppiness. Peach and a hint of oak. Hopbitter aftertaste. Fine kellerbier, full of flavor. Re-rate swing top bottle: cake dough and peach in the aroma. Malty cake dough flavor with hints of licorice and pear. Nice!

Dark amber color. Beechwood and smoked ham in the aroma. Very fruity start (pineapple), followed by a not-too-agressive smokiness. The pineapple plays first violin. Smoke aftertaste, also with pineapple.

Smokey George (5%) from Brauerei Rittmayer (Hallerndorf)

Swing top bottle. Amber color. Peat and smoked bacon in the aroma. Lychee and smoked cheese in the flavor. Just a bit malty and sugary. The smoke is clearly there, but not overwhelming. Doesn’t have very much to do with whisky malt, except for the peat in the nose, but you can smell this beer from a distance and I really like it.
