Villacher Stadtbrauerei

Amber Lager·Austria·4.9% ABV·One of 103 Amber Lagers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Villacher Draustadt's caramel and malty character. Draustadt Lager takes its name from the nickname of Villach, the city on the river Drau. Brewed purely from barley malt and hops to 11.8 degrees Plato, it pours a clear amber under a creamy head. Caramel and honey notes lead on the nose, joined by a restrained touch of roast and toasted bread. The body is soft and velvety, malt and hops stay in balance, and a pleasant, moderate bitterness carries into a full, rounded finish.
