Spital Strong Ale
Spitalbrauerei Regensburg is the city's oldest brewery, and the Spital Strong Ale is built to prove it — a bold manufaktur beer at 9.9% that tastes of rich malt, caramel and dark fruit deepening into something almost chocolate-like. Full-bodied and warming without harshness, this is the kind of strong ale that demands winter nights and long, quiet contemplation.
