Description
It was 1857 when Hugo Bayerlein founded the Bayreuther Bierbrauerei. In 1872 Hugo Bayerlein sold the brewery to a group of investors. These changed the brewery's name to a public limited company and sold the shares to Bayreuth families. In 1965, the Maisel brewery, with its Gebr. Maisel brewery, acquired a large package of shares and thus provided a positive impetus for the further development of our Bayreuth brewery. In this way, the Bayreuth brewery was able to maintain its independence, develop positively and enter into a well-functioning cooperation with the neighboring family brewery. With a large portion of foresight, the managers of our Bayreuth beer brewery and the Gebr. Maisel brewery decided in the 1960s to use our capacities together. So the new location was selected jointly and the joint production facility was founded.

Pours pale golden with almost perfect clarity. Average white head, decent retention and little lacing. Very classic helles aroma, not too deep or lively: hay, light grassy/herbal hints, a hint of honey. Taste notes follow the aroma closely, again with not too much intensity, but most of all with a bit too much sweetness in finish and aftertaste. Still, very much acceptable. Overall taste profile: medium sweetness, quite low bitterness. Light to medium body, with average carbonation (surely more carbonated than your average franconian lager). Overall decent, but not at all a well refined beer, especially in the carbonation part: while not especially high, it feels way more coarse and burpy than a good lager.

Bottle from Beer Zoo, Dunbar. Appearance - deep chestnut brown with a beige head. Nose - toffee, nuts and general praline. Taste - chewy toffee and nuts. Just a hint of raisin. Palate - medium bodied, chewy texture. Lightly sweet finish. Overall - a bit deeper than expected from a Landbier and can see why it has ben put into Dunkel / Tmavy style. Good.

Bottle, 0.5l. Cloudy deep copper/brown pour, one finger frothy off-white head. Medium lasting, slight lacing on the glass. Nice on the nose, grainy and grassy notes, light sour touch. Light to medium body, average carbonation. Soft mouthfeel and texture, smooth and easily drinkable. Balanced taste, bitter with light sourness. Aroma of malts and grains, grass, some earthy notes. Bready, light herbal spiciness, dried fruits, hints of citrus zest. Short lasting finish, slightly dry. Good thirst quencher.

Klar und goldgelb im Glas mit mäßiger feiner Perlage. Die weiße Schaumkrone zeigt sich feinporig, flaumig-stabil und gut haltbar. Der Duft kommt süß-säuerlich, leicht hefig und leicht getreidig. Leichte Zitrusaromen meint man auch zu vernehmen. Den Start macht ein rezenter und getreidiger Antrunk. Im Mittelteil wartet ein wenig süßer, spelziger, getreidiger und trocken-herb wirkender Aromamix. Aufgrund des eher trocken-herben Mundgefühls ergibt sich eine eher mäßige Süffigkeit. Im Abgang wirkt die Angelegenheit etwas dünn und weiterhin trocken herb. Für ein bayerisches Helles sehr untypisch. Praktisch keine Süße, dafür eine trockene Herbe. Das passt irgendwie nicht zur Erwartungshaltung.

Barva tmave medena az hneda, lehce zakalena. Pena stredne vysoka, spise min trvanliva. Vune kvasnicova, maselna. Chut sladova, nizsi horkost, trochu maslicka, trochu hutne kyselosti do chlebova. Suchy konec. Kazdopadne zajimavy kousek, takovy chleba s maslem. Nicmene favorit to asi nebude.
