Communbräu Zoigl

The Communbräu Zoigl looks back on a long tradition In the past, the wort was brewed in the Communbrauhaus and then distributed The individual recipients then added yeast to the unfinished beer themselves and let it ferment in their own cellar Everyone could decide for themselves how long the beer should be stored before consumption This resulted in a whole host of different tasting beers from one batch of wort This tradition was upheld in the northern Upper Palatinate in particular Today, hardly any brewery does this any more

The private brewery Hösl from Mitterteich has sprung from this brewing tradition and honors its roots with its very own Communbräu Zoigl Although the beer is no longer unfinished, you can still influence the taste by storing it again

The Communbräu Zoigl from Hösl flows into the glass in a rich, coppery amber hue and is crowned with a generous amount of light, airy white foam The majestic head exudes a malty aroma of oven-fresh bread crust and roasted malt, sun-dried straw and spicy yeast The first sip reveals a medium body with lively carbonic acid and fine dry malt notes Mild roasted malt, buttery caramel and tart herbs caress the palate In addition to the pleasant sweetness, the Zwickelbier has a fine bitterness that increases towards the finish to a clean, crisp bitterness

A success!
