Friedmann Fränkisches Landbier

Tap to rate

The Fränkisches Landbier is the brewery's pale everyday lager: bottom-fermented, filtered and golden under a creamy white head. The nose is grainy and bready with a light honey note. On the palate a soft malt sweetness leads, with hints of vanilla, butter and a little caramel, carried by a full yet smooth body and gentle carbonation. A restrained, slightly herbal hop bitterness rounds off the finish without much edge.

◐ Taste

Soft malt sweetness dominates the entry and mid-palate, supported by gentle vanilla and butter notes that suggest careful fermentation management. A whisper of caramel provides subtle depth. The full yet smooth body carries these flavors without heaviness, while restrained herbal hop bitterness emerges late, finishing clean and dry without sharp edges.
