Beers similar to Mönchshof Zwickl

Kellerbier·Germany·5.4% ABV·One of 296 Kellerbiers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Mönchshof Zwickl's caramel and bready character. Mönchshof Zwickl joined the range in 2017 under the name Zoigl, after the Upper Palatinate tradition, and has carried its current name since 2022. It is fermented cold, lagered close to freezing and left unfiltered, with Hallertau Perle and Saphir as aroma hops and a malt blend that includes caramel malts. It pours light bronze with an opal haze under a creamy white head. Honey, fresh bread and a little yeast lead on the nose; the soft palate brings linden-blossom honey, gentle caramel, a nutty touch and a hint of citrus, and the bitterness stays at the very edge.
