Ayinger Frühlingsbier

Tap to rate

An unfiltered seasonal brewed over the winter and poured from early March. It pours a hazy pale straw to gold with fine suspended particles and a generous creamy white head. The nose is grainy and malty with a yeast-blossom note, straw and hay behind it and a trace of vanilla. The palate opens soft and gently sweet, honey and caramel meeting mandarin and a mild fruitiness, and a herbal bitterness arrives late. The body is slim, the carbonation fresh. Brewed at 12.8 degrees Plato.
