Egerer Bierkutscher Hell Urtyp

Brewed by Privatbrauerei H. Egerer
Style: Dortmunder/Helles
Pilsting-Großköllnbach, Niederbayern, Germany

bottle, donated by pivnizub! Clear golden yellow with a large white head. Malty nose. Very malty in a sweet way, slightly grainy with a touch of vanilla, honey and sweetcorn. Balanced off with a good and surprisingly high amount of aromatic and bitter hops, which give the beer a bitter-sweet character. Many beers of the style can be boring - this one definitely isn’t! I can also feel a Bohemian touch in the malt and hops... lovely!

(bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a mid-sized foamy white head. Slightly sweet strawy malty nose with notes of biscuits and herbal, slightly flowery hops. Sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with an almost creamy carbonation. Pale malty, slightly strawy taste with herbal hops; slightly malty and moderately hop bitter finish. A rounded Helles. 26.X.09
