Aktien Zwick'l Kellerbier if you want a more mineral, assertive kick; Fliegender Bayerischer if you want softer, rounder edges.
Both are unfiltered lagers sitting at nearly identical ABV and bitterness, but Bayreuther's version has a drier mineral spine that cuts through the yeast haze, while Hummel's reads gentler and more approachable. It's the difference between a cellared beer that wants to show its backbone versus one designed to ease you in.

Tasting notes
Aktien Zwick'l Kellerbier
Aktien Zwick'l has a grainy, almost chalky minerality that hits you first—fresh from the cellar and proud of it. The yeast cloudiness doesn't soften anything; instead it adds a slight peppery snap that lingers on your palate. It's dry-finishing for a kellerbier, almost astringent in the best way. There's a subtle herbal undertone that suggests noble hops doing their job quietly.
Fliegender Bayerischer Kellerbier
Fliegender Bayerischer pours thicker and creamier despite similar specs—the yeast suspension feels like it's actually cushioning the beer. You get malt sweetness upfront that's genuinely pleasant, and the bitterness sits in the background as a gentle suggestion rather than a statement. It finishes cleaner than you'd expect, but not sharp. This is a kellerbier that wants to be your friend immediately.
