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.

Dorada clara, limpia, brillante. Espuma blanca abundante y duradera. Aroma a grano, malta, especias. En boca es ligera, en su punto de gas, refrescante. Equilibrada, seca, con buen punto de amargor. Malteada con contrapunto lupulado que aporta notas especiadas y florales. Buena helles.

Bottle from a local getränkemarket in Weimar. Looks simple but good. Beer in the glass deep golden, nice head. Starts fine malty, spicy, light metallical touch. Shy bitter background. Finish less spicy, still with some metallical notes. Not bad.

(Draft at Foersters Feine Biere, Steglitz, Berlin, 15 July 2025) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Malty nose with notes of bread, buttery malt, herbs and hay. Malty taste with bread, grass, hay and a mild herbal bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a slight sweetness. Harmonious and well balanced. Nice one.

Bottled, thx Pat M most likely, but unsure. Clear golden body, white head. Simple malty aroma. Lean, dry taste, some generic maltiness, bit floral, somewhat dry, pleasant bitterness. Okay.

Klare goldgelbe Farbe; mittelporige, relativ stabile Schaumkrone. in der Nase würzig, Helles Malz und blumiger Hopfen, im Hintergrund fruchtig-säuerliche Aromen. Im Geschmack rund, malzig, Honig, etwas Süße, leicht würzig, schlanker bis mittlerer Körper, präsente Hopfenbittere. Nicht ganz mein Bierstil, aber definitiv gut gemacht.
