About
As the “Köstritzer Erbschenke” the Köstritzer black beer brewery is first mentioned in 1543, making it one of the oldest breweries in Germany. In 1948, the brewery became a "Volkseigener Betrieb" after the state of Thuringia had expropriated it. In 1991 the Köstritzer Schwarzbierbrauerei became part of the Bitburger Group and within a few years it has grown into one of the most modern and largest breweries in Thuringia.

Pours a hazy golden color, topped with a big and stable white head. Mild grainy malty nose with a bit of chalk. Stale body feel. Malty sweet with a medium bitterness. Medium light with quite some metallic notes in aftertaste - not the best.

15.08.2016/17.04.2017 -- 0.5l bottle in a taster pack in marktkauf/edeka. pours a hazy orange with a steady off-white head and a nice lacing. aroma of sprucy hops and sweet malts. flavour of spruce, passionfruit, grapefruit, orange flowers. slight alcohol warmth, zesty bittersweet finish, quite sweet actually. yes, this is a real ipa from bitburger. how weird. 05.06.2018 -- an out-of-date bottle (bb 20.02.2017). still good, with apricots and passionfruit.

50cl bottle, 7%. Cloudy amber color, big rocky creamy whitehead, everlasting. Nice american hops smell. Aroma is very malty, hints of caramel and dough, with huge hoppiness, resin, some citrus, grapefruit peel. Taste is well balanced, syrupy malts sweetness, intense hops bittering. Full bodied, creamy texture, very tasty, umami, a bit salty. Very smooth aromatic/spicy finish. Loved it, unexpectedly very good. Resembles west coast unfiltered ipas with 15cl extra.
