Buttenheimer Kellerbier

◎ Appearance

Pours amber to copper with a gentle haze characteristic of an unfiltered, unbunged Kellerbier. The head is minimal and dissipates quickly, reflecting the low carbonation typical of this cellar-aged style. Clarity reveals the active yeast and suspended particulates that define the beer's living character.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with soft bread crust and toasted grain notes from the pale and dark Franconian malts. Herbal and slightly spicy characters from the Hallertauer Tradition and Spalter Select hops emerge gently, with a whisper of caramel sweetness and subtle roast undertones. The overall aromatic profile is clean and understated, inviting rather than assertive.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and smooth, with malty sweetness and bready character building across the palate. The mid-palate reveals mineral undertones and gentle caramel notes without cloying heaviness. Bitterness arrives as a refined herbal finish, restrained at 25 IBU yet present enough to provide balance and prevent flatness.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and gently bitter, with herbal hop characters persisting into the aftertaste. The low carbonation allows the beer to fade slowly and gracefully, leaving bread crust and mineral notes as the final memory.

Serve at 7–9°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
