Draught at the brewpub as Gambrinusbräu Kellerbier. Grassy hop aroma. Hazy golden colour. Small white head. The flavour has a little of the grassy hoppiness as the aroma, quite uncommon in a German beer. Good malt body. Cleansing bitterness in the finish along with more grass flavour.

The owner pulled a tap beer specially for me in a pot stopper bottle, so that I could taste it at home. It only lasted until Würgau, where I tasted it in my hotel room. Golden color. Malty aroma and flavor with some hop presence. Barnyard aroma and flavor, even a bit sulphury. Typical hells from a very small Franconian brewery. It’s not clean, but there is always something interesting in the flavor that makes tasting worthwile.
