Festbier·Switzerland·5.6% ABV·One of 94 Festbiers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Festbier's malty and noble-hoppy character. Fine malt notes meet a delicate hop aroma, with fruity and spicy touches and a lively sparkle. This clear, golden bottom-fermented Festbier is brewed from a stronger wort, 5.6% ABV, from water, barley malt and hops, and served at 7–9 °C. It is a seasonal beer: Falken brews it for the festive months, so it turns up around the end of October and stays until the year's end.
