Flötzinger Trachtler Hoibe

Tap to rate

Trachtler Hoibe is brewed as a tribute to the region's traditional costume associations, and part of its sales goes to support their work. It is an amber lager brewed to the Bavarian purity law with an original gravity of 12.3 percent. The beer shows a bright amber colour under a creamy, lasting head. Malt carries it: toasted bread, light caramel and a nutty note, with a mild, gently spicy hop in the background and a soft, easy finish.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Flötzinger Trachtler Hoibe

◎ Appearance

Bright amber hue radiates in the glass, displaying excellent clarity beneath a creamy, persistent head that clings to the sides with fine lacing. The carbonation manifests as a gentle, steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the liquid, creating an inviting visual presentation that speaks to careful conditioning.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with toasted bread and lightly caramelized malt, offering warmth and depth without heaviness. Underneath, a soft noble hop presence contributes a gently spicy, herbal dimension that remains restrained and respectful of the malt foundation, with no sharp or aggressive notes.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and approachable, with the malt character unfolding as toasted grain and subtle nuttiness across the mid-palate. Bitterness remains gentle and refined, at 17 IBU, never dominating the flavor landscape. The beer maintains an even, balanced profile throughout, allowing the malt to remain the primary voice.
