Hachenburger Festbier

Westerwald-Brauerei
Tap to rate
🌍 Germany · Festbier · One of 2 Festbiers in hopIQ

The Festbier as the Westerwald builds it — 12.8° Stammwürze, 5.5% ABV, hopped restrained enough that the malt does the talking. Süffig without being sweet, richer than the Pils but nowhere near a bock. Made to disappear in a stein at long tables.
