Roppelt Hausbrauerbier

Tap to rate

Roppelt's Hausbrauerbier keeps alive the old Franconian house-brewer right: every fortnight the unfiltered young beer is handed to customers straight after primary fermentation and finishes conditioning in their own cellars, where the carbonation is adjusted to taste. The brewery calls it a little more bitter than its other beers. Drinkers describe floral and herbal hops with chamomile and meadow notes, a touch of honey and lean, grainy white bread, closing on a moderate bitterness.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Roppelt Hausbrauerbier

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with a slight hazy cast, characteristic of an unfiltered Kellerbier fresh from primary fermentation. The head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. Carbonation appears moderate and natural, reflecting the brewery's practice of allowing customers to adjust fizz to their preference during home conditioning.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with delicate floral and herbal hop notes, evoking dried chamomile and fresh meadow grasses. Beneath lies a subtle honey sweetness and the clean, grainy character of white bread crust. Yeast-driven cloudiness contributes a soft, slightly earthy undertone without any sharp phenolic edge.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and grainy, with lean malt backbone and a touch of honey balancing the lean white-bread character. The mid-palate develops a moderate herbal and floral bitterness from noble hops, clean and persistent without harshness. The finish dries gradually, leaving a lingering grassy and mildly bitter aftertaste.
