Three crowns 1457 barrel - Lager

No other region in the world has such a density of breweries as Franconia and nowhere else are there breweries that have been producing beer for so long Villages and towns used to have a selection of breweries, but today there are still a surprising number of them left and if you drive through the countryside, there is a brewery every few kilometers that invites you to take a break with homemade specialties in liquid and solid form

One of these breweries is Drei Kronen from Memmelsdorf The family-run brewery inn looks back on more than 560 years of history and is one of the oldest breweries in the region The brewery was first mentioned in a document in 1457 In honor of this special year, the team has come up with a beer: the beery homage to the year of the document is a fine lager, which we stock both in bottles and in practical 5-litre kegs

The copper-red brew with an ivory-colored head smells enticingly of nutty malt when poured into the glass The nose is joined by hints of sweet honey and caramel The first sip skilfully follows this example and ensnares the palate with a gustatory feast of lightly roasted grain, The hops contribute a gentle tartness, fresh pine notes, floral hints and a crisp, bitter finish Delicious!
