Ergenzinger Ochsenbräu Keller-Bier Spezial

Brewed by Ochsenbräu Ergenzingen
Style: Zwickel/Keller/Landbier
72108 Rottenburg-Ergenzingen, Germany

Bottled 50cl. Courtesy of Quack-Duck: It pours a murky pale golden beer with a beautifully remainig lacing tall white head. I served this beer at a temperature which was slightly too cold; anyway: as it warmed up the aroma got gradually more complex: Very pleasant and inviting with papaya, hops, pineapple, milk chocolate, a lot of almonds and figs showing up. Fruity and grainy. Nice balance on the palate. Beautiful hop profile. Papaya being rather present accompanied by pineapple and almonds. Wonderfully fruity. Low carbonation. Subuded bitterness. Reminiscence of jasmine, candy sugar, papaya and pineapple in the finish which is makes you eager to drink more. A top notch Zwickel with plenty of character. Mindblowingly pleasant. Thanks a lot Quack-Duck!

bottle, bought at the brewery. Hazy golden colour with a large, creamy white head. Fragrant hoppy nose. Full-bodied with delicious malt flavours and very fragrant and perfumy aromatic hops. Bitter-sweet, reminds me of some unfiltered Bohemian 12° lagers... I want more of this beer!
