Description
Since 1663 the brewing trade has remained in direct family hands. The fathers always passed the art of brewing beer on to their sons. And that's still the case today! All the Georgs, Johanns and Leonhards brewed their beer here in Pahres with fresh water from the same brewery's own well. In the past also with self-grown Aischgründer hops.

The Hofmann brewery has grown to its present size under the leadership of Georg Hofmann and delivers its beer within a radius of up to 60 km from the brewery chimney. Since 1990 responsibility has been in the hands of Georg Hofmann.

Gezapft im Muted Horn Sehr klar, Gold-Gelb. Fester Schaum, etwas ein Fingerbreit. Relativ wenig Kohlensäure. Klassisches Pilsaroma. Etwas Malzsüsse, ein wenig Zitrus. Tendenziell voller Antrunk, sanftes Mundgefühl. Anfangs moderat bitter, legt sich die Bitterkeit dann etwas schärfer in den Gaumen und den Hals. Malzsüsse. Ein wenig Zitrus. Ein gutes Pils.

(bottle) Clear, golden colour with a big and loose foamy white head. Strawy malty aroma with notes of honey, backed by floral and hay-ish hops. Moderately sweet and slightly bitter flavour, medium bodied with an almost crisp carbonation. Strawy malt character with notes of honey and white bread, accompanied by balanced floral hops, which are getting mildly spicy towards the rounded sweet-bitter finish. Nice one, has some drinkability, despite its high level of alcohol. 14.VI.18

Preissn-Fläschla ("NRW-Flasche"): Clear, Golden with a slight greenish sheen, small and slowly collapsing white head; moderate honeyish-grainy nose, some strawy hops in the background; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, medium to full bodied, not really soft; mildly lingering bitter-herbal and grainy finish, becomes drier towards the aftertaste. Not bad, well hidden alcohol, but all in all not the best Heller Bock...
