Tap to rate

Schwarzacher Kellerbier is lightly yeast-cloudy and unfiltered: spicy and easy to drink, with a pleasant play of acidity and a velvety body. Malty notes with a light caramel sweetness and a slightly bitter finish round it out. With the Kellerbier, beer has been brewed in Schwarzach again since 2021. It is made with water from the brewery's own spring, 100 % Austrian barley and hops from the Mühlviertel hop growers' cooperative.
