Description
The Knoblach inn has been in Schammelsdorf since 1880 and it has been brewing there for about this long. Today Michael Knoblach is the resident master brewer. The Knoblachs are deeply rooted in their homeland and maintain good contact with regional suppliers and farmers. They attach great importance to preserving and actively promoting the diversity of the Bamberg region. For this purpose, the raw materials are, as far as possible, bought exclusively from the region. This not only has the advantage of boosting the domestic economy, but is also reflected in the quality. The ingredients couldn't be fresher.

Bottle from Hausmann Getränke. Very lightly hazy gold, moderate head. Nose: ripening grain, fresh cut sweet hay, subtle but great. The flavor is a big blend of grain complexity. It finishes dry with super smooth bitterness and earthy/forest floor hops notes. Now I remember why I drank too much of this from a party keg at a tasting last year...

On tap at HopDog. Reddish gold, moderate head, nice spicy hops with a backbone of very tasty grain and a hint of sweetness. Really smooth bitterness that is just much tastier than the average Märzen. Four thumbs up, I didn't realize I have so many, great!

Bottle from Hausmann Getränke. Clear gold, nice head, spicy malty nose. Gray crisp and clean flavor, lightly sweet/suffig, earthy hops notes with a lasting complexity of malt overtones in three aftertaste. What a great Helles!

500 ml bottle from Bierothek Wien. Golden-amber, slightly hazy body, with a big, creamy, light beige head. Aroma of grains, white bread, biscuit, flowers, cereals, some sweet fruits, some honey. Tastes similar, with some more crisp herbal notes. Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation. Finishes smooth, crisp, medium sweet, medium bitter, a bit dry, floral, herbal, grassy, cerealic, a bit mineralic. Tasty. Extremely smooth, with just enough bitterness and rustic notes to balance the sweet, creamy malt body. Another very quaffable, characterful Lager by Knoblach I could drink all day! Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 16
