Beers similar to Leichtes Helles Schankbier

Aktienbrauerei Kaufbeuren

Light Lager·Germany·2.8% ABV·One of 144 Light Lagers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Leichtes Helles Schankbier's dry and grassy character. A Bavarian Schankbier brewed to a low gravity of 7.7 degrees Plato, pale gold and light on its feet. Hallertauer Tradition and Spalter Select carry a gentle herbal and floral hop note with hints of lemon zest and meadow flowers, set over a thin cracker-like malt base. The body stays slender and the finish is dry and quick; at 18 IBU the bitterness leaves a faint grassy bite rather than hanging on.
