Kaiser Doppelmalz

Kaiser Bier
Tap to rate
🌍 Austria · Amber Lager · One of 34 Amber Lagers in hopIQ

Kaiser Doppelmalz is brewed to an original gravity of 12.8 °P with an addition of sugar, yet it stays at a moderate strength, which leaves a noticeable residual sugar. It pours reddish brown. The aroma is malty, with a caramel-tinged note and a little bread crust. On the palate it is sweetish and lively with a slim structure; the sweetness stays in front, and the finish turns hoppy without much bitterness.
