Schlegel Urtyp
Schlegel Urtyp is the brand's only beer, a pale export lager modelled on the Spezialexport that the old Bochum brewery sold under the Urtyp name. It is brewed from water, barley malt and hops and pours a bright pale gold under a fine, dense white head. The nose is quiet and grainy, with cereal and light hop notes. Soft malt sweetness with a bready edge carries the palate, a restrained spiciness sits underneath, and the finish turns lightly bitter and dry. Carbonation is moderate.
