Commercial Description:
The naturally-cloudy Mönchshof Kellar beer is the result of Mönchshof's centuries-long brewing tradition and of the love of traditional beer brewing. This amber color, mild beer appeals to lovers of unfiltered beer, the way it used to be. A tradional Mönchshof beer specialty.

My first Keller. Pours with a small, foamy, dark, off-white head covering a cloudy, dark brown body. Aroma of fruits (currants), hay, and honey. Taste is refreshing and light. Fruity with some yeasty notes in the taste. No bitterness and tons of sweetness, kind of watery, and unconcentrated. Watery mouthfeel. Very easy to drink.

500ml flip top. My first keller bier. It Poured a cloudy orange-copper/brown color with a very nice off-white fluffy head. The aroma had sweet caramel with tobacco and some honey. Flavor is a decent blend of grainy, toasty, doughy, honeyish malt sweetness and lightly spicy, leafy, fruity hops, accompanied by tinges of light bitterness and a gentle yeast presence. Mouthfeel was fully and hearty, liquid bread, a nice beer.

500 ml bottle thanks to Jason for bringing this back from Sacramento. Yeast and malt on the nose, Similar flavors with some sweet lemon citrus on the finish. Just ok, but refreshing.

Glass poured fresh from 5L party keg. Never seen a kellerbier anywhere outside Germany, this is certainly a treat! Pours an enticing chuck-laden murky copper body with a moderate dense white head leaving clumpy lace on the way down. Sweet malt on the nose, caramelly and toasty, some musty dried fruit, earthy spice and bread. Lively carbonation, moderate body, has a somewhat appealing grittiness about the texture. Toasty malt body, sweet toffee and fresh baked bread, orange citrus and musty dried apricot, spicy almost like a Belgian towards the finish. Reasonably bitter with a lingering drying spice and breadiness. Big fan of this style, wish it were more common place downunder. Quite a nice beer overall too.

1 pint .9 fl oz swing top bottle purchased at Lukas in Kansas City, MO. Pour is a cloudy brown golden with a great bubbly settling and a 1 inch tan head. Aroma of sweet fruit and bready maltiness. Very much a toasted caramel sweetness. Big, full nose and pretty syrupy. Taste is sweet and syrupy. Caramel is there, still toasted but there is now an orange syrup sweetness as well. The palate is nice, unfiltered and mouth coating. Very low carbonation. Overall, interesting, but a bit more syrupy sweetness than I like.

Murky looking, straw coloured body with short head. Yeasty aroma along with a little bit of toffee, a little bit more of the malts showing in the taste making it very drinkable.
