Johann Auer Kellerbier

Tap to rate
🌍 Germany · Kellerbier · One of 147 Kellerbiers in hopIQ

An unfiltered seasonal lager with 5.5% alcohol from 12.5 °P, left naturally cloudy. The brewery names Pilsner and Munich malts and describes a full-bodied beer matured in its cool lager cellars. A taster reports a hazy golden yellow with a medium head, a fine malty smell and a first sip that combines malt sweetness with grainy, nutty notes. It is lively on the tongue, the hop adds spice without much bitterness, and only the long finish turns slightly bitter.

The nose presents a fine malty foundation, with soft notes of grain and subtle nuttiness emerging beneath. Noble hop character adds a restrained spice without overwhelming the delicate malt-forward profile typical of the style.

◐ Taste

Entry opens with malt sweetness balanced by grainy and nutty complexity. The palate remains lively and full-bodied, with hop spice developing mid-palate in a measured, refined manner that complements rather than dominates the Malz character.
