Beers made in Himmelkron

This beer deserves the name of a real beer. A typical, Upper Franconian, bottom-fermented Keller beer, copper-coloured, unfiltered and with no artificial CO2. It offers a full-bodied taste. The aromatic hops used give the beer a pleasant bitterness. After traditional open fermentation and subsequent barrel fermentation, the beer matures in barrels from February to Whit Monday.

In 2012, our trip to Scotland brought the breakthrough. A great Scottish Stout, black as night, dry and bitter. The high proportion of roasted malt  and caramel malts combines with the bitterness and the use of top-fermented brewer's yeast to create a typical Scottish delight.

Our trip to Ireland in 2023 was responsible for a favourite Irish beer brewed by Smithwicks. Of course the Ale's name was not made for our tounges, so we established an Red Ale by ourselfes called "SchmittFix". It will be on tap first in 2025.
