Dortmunder Export·Germany·5.3% ABV·One of 96 Dortmunder Exports in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Fahnenschwinger's malty and full-bodied character. Fahnenschwinger is the brewery's Export, named after the flag-swinger who is the emblem of Zwiesel's Grenzlandfest, held every July, and still poured from the keg in most of the house's inns. It is described as golden, full-bodied and spicy with a well-balanced hop bitterness. Tasters note grainy aromas that carry into the flavour, a lightly sweet and distinctly malty start, a gentle spiciness from the hops with restrained bitterness and a smooth, warm finish.
