🌍 Germany · Pale Ale · One of 83 Pale Ales in hopIQ

Dry-hopped with Citra and Simcoe on a pale, naturally hazy base beer — the craft-side detour of a traditional Ruhr brewery, packaged in the small 0.33l Bierchen format. Fresh lime and grapefruit lead the nose, subtle passionfruit underneath, all resting on the honest Stauder malt core. The label calls it hopfig, fruchtig, ehrlich, handlich — accurate.

About Pale Ale

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a Pale Ale?

India Pale Ales are hop-forward ales with ABV typically 5.5–7.5% and IBU 40–70+. Bold citrus, pine or tropical aromas alongside firm bitterness and a clean dry finish.

Finding a similar Pale Ale

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Stauder Original Bierchen

Serve at 7–10°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.

Pint glass
Recommended for this style

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
