Schwanenbräu Ebermannstadt
Tap to rate
🌍 Germany · Festbier · One of 42 Festbiers in hopIQ

Schwanenbräu brews its Festbier every year for the Altstadtfest, Ebermannstadt's old-town festival in mid-August, and pours it into early autumn. Tasters describe it as surprisingly light and refreshing for a festival beer. Pale malt gives a bready, lightly sweet core, while a clear hop presence adds a herbal, spicy edge and a pleasant bitterness that leads into a dry finish. The brewery publishes no strength or further details.
