Kommunbrauerei Mitterteich Oppl Zoigl
Draught @ Oppl, Mitterteich. Pours unclear Golden with a small White foam. Fresh bready malty notes, a touch of grass and grains. Very smooth, soft and gentle overall. Perhaps almost too clean for its own good but Lovely yes.

Kommunbrauerei Mitterteich Oppl Zoigl
Eingeschenkt finde ich ein leicht trübes helleres Bernstein vor, die streikende Blume spielt in Sachen Optik leider nicht ganz mit. Im komplex ausgerichteten Duft lassen sich eine fruchtige Süße, eine beherzte Würze und sogar etwas Hopfen ausmachen. Äußerst vielversprechend! Weich und malzbetont steigt der Oppl Zoigl sortenüblich und gefällig ein. Neben einer feinen Süße und einer schönen Quittenfruchtigkeit findet sich geschmacklich auch eine durchaus angenehme Hefigkeit wieder. Trotz zurückhaltender Spundung wirkt der Oppl Zoigl herrlich erfrischend. Durchaus vollmundig (Hefe rules!) präsentiert sich der Körper zur Mitte hin. Der Hopfen agiert mit toller Quittenfruchtigkeit, während das Malz neben Waldhonig-Einflüssen vor allem in die brotige Ecke zielt. Schließlich folgt der sanft hopfigherbe Abgang mit einem passenden gerstigen Nachgang. Himmlisch! Dieser Zoigl läuft, und wie!!

Archival bottle at ČP, BB November 2016! So, obviously, to be re-rated as soon as possible, and the rating is slightly generous so as to be more fair. Misty dark amber-red body, off-white head. Honeyish aroma, some red apples, old. Clean, if oxidized maltiness, retaining some herbal touches. All in all, decent, it aged fairly gracefully.

Tap @ Boozhaus. Golden color, hazy. Orange and soft yeasty notes in the bready aroma. Bready, slightly herbal, grassy flavor with licorice and tea. Low on carbon. Peppermint. Very tasty and drinkable.

Oppl Zoigl, vom Faß in Mitterteich. - Helles Goldbraun, trüb. - Nase stark hefig, mild herbal hopfig. - Antrunk satt und lebhaft brotig-karamelmalzig mit schöner Süße. Milde aber aromatische Hopfenherbe, zitronige Orangenschale, Kräuter. Milder rezent, hefeweich doch mineralisch hart. Im Abgang milde fränkische Hopfenherbe mit kühlender Minze. - Weniger kernig als erwartet aber schön rund, frisch und süffig. Und das Krautfleisch war auch richtig gut. (23.8.2019.)

My Bottom Line:
Full of hay and straw, this blond Zoiglbier delivers plenty of malt flavors in a rich and bubbly mouthfeel.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A tuft of white foam decorates the blond mist.
-This is beautifully süffig.
-A touch of sulphur is found in the aroma.
-This zoiglstube has salient barn aromas all around the biergarten, so it’s to know if the beer itself has rustic notes. Nonetheless, this makes for a superbly authentic countryside pint.

On tap at the zoiglstube.

Bottle on the train from Schwandorf, 14/07/17. Slightly unclear golden with I assume a decent white to off white head. Nose is malt forward, straw, grains, bready notes. Taste comprises cereals, grains, moderate sweet notes, light bread, mellow fruit, light almond. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent.

Kommunbrauerei Mitterteich Zoiglbauer
500ml bottle [A "guildy" thank-you to bartlebier for this preciosity!]. Milky, pale amber colour with late awakening, small to average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Restricted, yeasty, bready-doughy aroma with some husk and a cautious herbal-floral touch, a touch of nettle, apricot in homoeopathic dosis. Taste is minimally sweet, bready malty and doughy yeasty, a slightly diluted touch of apricot, herbal-spicy, hoppy hints of nettle; oily texture, soft carbonation. Not that bad, but maybe disappointing if you have had some Zoigl highlights immediately beforehand.

Tap Seidlas inter festas 2016, 50cl bottles (MHD 10/2017). A semi-industrial bandwagon Zoigl of sorts, brewed outside of Mitterteich and served in their polished new Zoiglstube. Great food, beer not a draw in itself compared to neighbour Oppl. - Tame amber pour, clean and barley husk-bitter with wallpaper glue nose from older bottle, with a literal grassy bitterness and even some metallic sulphurs. Minimal toffee on draught, maximal nut husk and vegetal bitterness that builds, especially bottled, towards unsessionability. Mainly though: it lacks character, not just rustic. - Locals’ advise: if it comes pre-bottled, it’s no longer Kommunbrau Zoigl...

5L minikeg bb02/2017 from source, mit Dank an die Falkenberger locals for recommending this to me as their favourite and the "Champagne of Zoigls". Shared in Neu-Ulm at Silvester. - Pours, and sets, as an annunciation of the unfiltered goodness it holds: heavy with trub, golden with yeast-suffused hayish malts, uncarbonised and thick as nectar. Aroma of damp rural pastures, sweet blossom honey with an alluring fresh citrus note and a whiff of cultivated wildness, even an apple juice going on cider tartness. - Pillowy mouthfeel, working in accord with the all-natural micro-bubbles, to create the promise that pulling the plug on this tin is equal to downing it within the same 24hrs, less in good company. A lovely citrus tartness in flavour woven into the bready buttermilk texture of pure terroir nectar....

500ml bottle (whatever marduk puts, Prague)
Apple, milky aroma, some pastry too. Pale orange, brief head. Taste similar to aroma, back to apple pastry. Palate a bit flat, a bit dead. Finish has a gentle dusty bitterness. Pleasant, but doesn’t excite. Very drinkable.

500ml bottle (Dno Pytle, Prague). Clear amber color. Tiny size, bubbly head, stays as a ring. Minerals, grainy, fruity, yeasty in aroma. Quite weak aroma. Grainy, sweet, some caramel, dough, faint minerals in taste. Thin and watery. Not sure about this. Drinkable brew.

Kommunbrauerei Mitterteich Hartwich Zoigl
Served via gravity barrel at the adorably warm and quaint Stromhais Zoiglstube in Flossenburg: Hazy orange with golden highlights. Tight, broken white foam. Soft and very pleasant aroma of flowers, zesty hops, dusty yeast, minerals, toasted bread, hay dust, and expressive malt. Soft, relaxed carbonation. Notably soft body is infused with a refined base of fluffy pils malt and a delicate kiss of Hallertau-derived flower petals. The body’s texture is just as juicy as it is soft. Saliva-inducing floral notes are joined by a pleasing contrast of scratchy minerals and palate-gripping hay dust. Understated orange marmalade fruitiness adds a sturdiness as does a welcome punch of chewy melanoidins. Edgeless, silky Cara-malt boasts a plentitude of cookie and shortbread flavors. Quite "gamey" in character. Yeast puts its signature all over this with an earthy, zesty, and dusty bite. Finishes cleanly with a flourish of dryness which is enhanced by robust minerals and a profoundly soft mixture of vivid pils malt and lightly scorched toast, sans any harshness whatsoever. Quite the nectar bomb this is. I’d put this right up there with Schoilmichl and Eslarn Zoigl as being the most rustic and singular zoiglbiers out there. Wonderful beer!

Gravity barrel at Stromhais Zoiglstube in Flossenburg. Lightly hazed honey amber with a medium-sized tan head of average retention. Aroma is minerals, honey, floral hops, apricot / orange, glazed pastries. Medium bodied, suffig and lip smacking sugars balanced by spicy hops; bitterness is restrained and carbonation is low, and mid-palate it seems like it is about to fall apart but there’s enough savoriness and richness from the malt to save it. Finishes juicy and sweet and succulent and sticky with lingering notes of herbs / flowers to go with the honey-glazed pastry maltiness. Prototypical clean, sweet, malty and rustic Oberpfalz Zoiglbier.

Kommunbrauerei Mitterteich Lugert Zoigl (Boozhaus)
Draft at Zoiglstube Lugert in Mitterteich: Golden orange with some haze. Lathery fringe of white foam. Very "gamey" nose of sulfur, cookie, poundcake, breadcrust, and orange marmalade. Fairly vegetal, lactic, and metallic, however. Souring fruit is present, as well. Soft, low-gas mouthfeel. Peppery and complexly malty, though far from clean. Flabby vegetal notes collide with an unrefined hop bitterness which evokes oversteeped tealeaves and wet grass. Yogurty/meaty yeast emerges and exacerbates the brash bitterness. Very heavily mineral-laden, which is welcome, though a gummy slickness abounds and obscures much of the beautiful water character. Herbaceous, woody hops lend good pungency in the rustic, well-malted finish, though strong vegetal notes are ongoing. A seemingly very young zoiglbier that exchanges much of its cleanliness for gamey youth. Meh.

Draught at Beim Roidl in Aug, 2014: Hazed orangish golden. Creamy halo of foam. Subtle but pleasant and clean aroma of nectar, lemon, minerals, toasted bread and haylike pils malt. Soft pinpricks of carbonation. Flavorsome splash of floral Hallertauer and ripe peach marmalade esters are cradled by the dry grip of piecrusty pils malt. Bright minerals vivify the delicate but well-structured toasty malt. Vibrant and full fruitiness supplies the mineral-laden core with sufficient weight. Clean and floral finish displays a flash of hop oils and nectar entwined with a slippery peach-candylike fruitiness and a cleansing hay dusty dryness. Well, it’s far from dynamic or complex, and my main quibble is that you must reach for its understated-to-a-fault flavors and aromas. But it’s quite an easy quaffer with very nice balance. Not excellent, but not at all shabby either.

Draft at Beim Roidl in Neualbenreuth. Hazed gold-orange body with a foamy off-white head.
Mild aroma of toasted grains, honey malt, faint plastic candle wax. Hops are pepper, dried grass, seeds. Medium body, fizzy carbonation, sweet and simple, a little papery in the mouth with a moderately bitter but short finish. Nothing too disagreeable, but nothing intriguing either.

Draft at Zoiglstube Lugert in Mitterteich. Lightly hazed amber gold with large white head.
For me the nose is strong diacetyl, wort, honey malt, rotting apples, raw. Medium body, sweet, low bitterness, oily and buttery and syrupy. Hints of leaf vegetables and yogurt. Bad shape in my opinion, but the locals were throwing it back.

5 litre party keg picked up at the delicatessen on mitterteich main square. pale golden with a faint haze and unenthusiastic head; chalky aroma, hay; low carbonation; light grassy bitterness; not particularly exciting for a kommun zoigl but perhaps the party keg wasn’t super-fresh since bauer weren’t serving that week

Oak barrel draught at Zoiglbauer in Mitterteich, November 2012: Hazy pumpkin orange. Quick, nonuniform voluminous white foam. Solid nose of flowers, peach jam, browned biscuit, cookie. Hints of lemon and grain husks. Soft and fluffy carbonation. Lightly metallic, initially, with a puttylike yeast bite which is engulfed by residual sugars akin to a marmalade-sweet zestiness. Appetizing spicy hop bitterness ensues. Very quenching with some mineralic pep atop a peppered melon slickness. Sturdy malt buttress is dry yet substantial and beefy with biscuity notions dabbed with slick peach puree. Chalky yeast supplies moderate sharpness late, though the finish remains predominantly fruity and slippery with crisply defined cookie and toasted bread accents. Comes off as being a bit unfinished and ordinary, but nevertheless it’s quaffable enough.

heavily hazed orange amber body with a creamy off-white head. juicy chew fruit flavor with musty and gamey yeast heavy in the nose. nicely frothy with a rich and chewy texture and a full body. sticky and almost sluggish texture. tart and musty yeast accented by fruit chew and spice / peppercorn German hops. full, heavy roundness with magically low carbonation. a decent zoigl that starts out as fresh and juicy but as it breathes becomes more musty and BO-like and slightly sour.

Unfortunately, they were pouring the Mitterteich zoigls one at a time, so we have to go back. Golden colour. Low head. Minerally, slightly fruity aroma. A fruitier example, with some mineral character, especially in the finish. Fairly well-hopped, so it is quite dry.
