Beers similar to Schwechater Zwickl

Schwechater Brauerei

Kellerbier·Austria·5.4% ABV·One of 247 Kellerbiers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Schwechater Zwickl's hazy and bitter character. Straw-yellow and unfiltered, with a dense yeast haze. Fine hopping brings a floral note, citrus and hay to the nose; the first sip has an intense, fresh hop flavour, a strong bitterness is balanced by an extremely soft, almost creamy body, and the hop aroma lingers. Made with barley and wheat malt, 5.4 % ABV. Since 1999 the Zwickl in its nostalgia bottle with the old label design has given the brand fresh momentum.
