A Note on This Beer

Writing a love letter can be hard work. Especially if the love letter is beer.

For a while now, Heater Allen has been crafting the finest, fermented brew-odes to proper Lager styles, and today’s Zwickelbier is a praise-worthy taste of their passion!

Some folks call the Zwickelbier style an “Amber Lager.” Some call it “something like a hazy German brew.” Heater Allen assures us, no matter what you call it, “this is a crisp, easy drinking beer with a light malt character and excellent balance… we’re so happy with how this turned out.”

Using Vienna Malts, Hersbrucker Hops, and a German step-mashing process that reduces the protein content of the beer, every can is maltier than your everyday Lager. With each refreshing sip, you can taste the drizzled-honey and toasted breadcrumb difference.

The brewery’s commitment to their traditional process has created a buzz from the fans, who write letters right back to the Lager-loving brew crew:

“That’s some good *beer* beer. Solid AF Lager.” @Joseph C.

“All floral in the nose and flavor! I could drink this all day! Wish I had bought more!” @Anil

Will you be there to get the mail when Heater Allen’s deliciously malty love letter lands on your doorstep?

Crisp, clean with nice malty body and taste, light hop bite. Good old traditional German style beer! I truly appreciate the craft brewers who brew more traditional styles in a world drowning in New England IPAs and PB or fruited stuff Prost!

Literally the best beer ever - aroma, color, flavor, weight, it’s got it all. A little sweet but just the right touch of tartness. LOVE this beer!

Aroma of grainy bread. Doughy bread, grassiness, and a light spiciness in taste.
