Original Hochzeitsbier von 1810

◎ Appearance

Deep amber to brown in color, reflecting the all-Munich malt base, with a light haze characteristic of an unfiltered brew. The head is modest but persistent, leaving fine lacing that clings to the glass. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, contributing to a substantial visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with warming fruity esters—dried stone fruit and raisin—layered beneath grainy, biscuity malt notes from the Munich base. Noble hops emerge with restraint, adding subtle floral and herbal undertones that frame rather than dominate. A gentle alcohol warmth rounds the bouquet without sharpness.

◐ Taste

The palate is full and malty on entry, with a soft, velvety sweetness from unfermentable residual extract that yields to a bready, grain-forward mid-palate. Hop bitterness is restrained at 22 IBU, providing balance without assertiveness. The finish carries both fruity warmth and a clean, slightly dry conclusion.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-length with a lingering malty softness and a whisper of dried fruit. A mild warming from the 6.3% ABV extends the aftertaste without heat or harshness.
