Weltenburger Kellerbier

Tap to rate

Weltenburger Kellerbier is bottled unfiltered and pours amber with a natural yeast haze. The aroma is delicate and yeasty. Pale and dark barley malts give a slender, malty body that feels mild and velvety, and the beer ends on a light hop bitterness from Herkules, Perle and Tradition. Carbonation is pleasantly lively. It is brewed at 11.8 °P original gravity and reaches 5.0 % ABV.
