hopIQ found 10 beers with the same malty and bready character as BOLTENs Jecken Spezial. BOLTENs Jecken Spezial was born on a carnival evening one November, when the brewers decided that the Lower Rhine's fifth season deserved a beer of its own; test brews followed, and the special edition has returned for the carnival season ever since. This bottom-fermented lager is brewed from barley malt alone and filtered, at 5.8 per cent. It is maltier than the house staples, with soft bread and toasted grain, light caramel and a gentle sweetness, balanced by a recognisable hop note that keeps it easy to drink. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
Closest match: Paulaner Oktoberfest Märzen — 92%. Same malt character and bread notes, with a noble-hoppy edge Bolten Brauerei keeps quiet.
