Frankenheim Alt

◎ Aussehen

Frankenheim Alt pours a deep, warm reddish-brown hue derived from Munich-type malts and traditionally drum-roasted grains. The beer presents excellent clarity with a modest, persistent head that leaves fine lacing on the glass as it recedes. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, lending a smooth visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced bready and lightly caramelised notes from the malt bill, followed by subtle toasted grain and a faint coffee edge imparted by the roasted malt. Hallertau hops contribute a restrained herbal and gently spicy character. Beneath these elements sits a soft, fruity undertone from the house top-fermenting yeast.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with a bready, slightly sweet entry that fills the mouth with a balanced malty structure. Mid-palate reveals caramel and toasted notes with a hint of coffee, while Hallertau hops deliver a gentle herbal bitterness that never overwhelms. The overall impression is smooth and well-rounded, with the house yeast contributing a delicate fruity complexity.

◑ Abgang

The finish remains sweetish rather than dry, with lingering bready and caramel notes that fade gracefully. A subtle herbal spice and hint of roasted grain persist in the aftertaste, leaving the palate satisfied rather than parched.
