Frankenmuth Brewery
Frankenmuth, Michigan, USA
German Style Seasonal Lager
6% abv
27 IBUs
$29.00 a case at the Brewery
I visited the brewery last week for the introduction of the
Christmas Town Ale. The place was packed
and a lot of cases were being sold and you got a free Christmas Town 16oz glass
with that case. I only bought a six pack
to go.
Appearance: misty dark copper body with a little beige
colored head; no lacing
Aroma: sweet toasted malts and a nice brown spice profile
Flavors: sweet toasted malty notes; grains; Christmas brown
spice bread with grated orange peel in the mix; the brown spice reminds me of
Allspice;
Mouthfeel: low moderate carbonation; light fizzy feel; light
brown spice lingers on the palate; light-moderate body for a winter ale;
To the Point: a nice winter ale; I was expecting a little
heavier body weight; the first time I tried it I just thought it was okay;
after having a couple more since last Thursday – I like it a little more – let me
call it pretty good and now I can say that I like it. I’ll
pick up another six to give it another try -
