Roppelt Kellerbier

Tap to rate

Roppelt's Kellerbier is the brewery's everyday beer and is served unfiltered at the inn and at the beer cellar at the foot of the Kreuzberg. The brewery describes it as pale, finely spiced, aromatic and hop-forward. The haze carries a fresh bread note from the malt, over which the hops lay herbal and grassy tones, with a light malt sweetness underneath. The finish stays dry, and the bitterness is more pronounced than in a Helles.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced herbal and grassy hop notes that sit atop a fresh bread character from the malt. Beneath these top notes lies a subtle malt sweetness and a clean, crisp quality typical of Bavarian lager yeast. The overall impression is aromatic and inviting, with hoppy spice layering through the mid-range.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and crisp, with immediate hop bitterness balanced by a fine malt sweetness that builds through the mid-palate. The flavor develops a distinctly grassy, herbal character that dominates, while the bread-like malt foundation provides structure and body. Bitterness is more pronounced than in a standard Helles, driving the dry finish.
