The Altenmünster Urig Würzig presents itself in the glass with a rich, amber-gold hue and is topped with a creamy, fine-pored head. The foam is stable and firm. The nose unfolds, revealing a harmonious interplay of gently roasted malt and roasted nuts, a hint of toffee, and a touch of freshly mown summer flowers. A feathery hop blossom rounds out the olfactory first impression and whets the appetite. On the palate, the beer is full-bodied and balanced: the velvety-smooth malt sweetness is surrounded by a fine, slightly earthy hop bitterness, lending depth and structure to the aromatics. A smooth, round body ensures a pleasant mouthfeel, while the dry, slightly spicy finish leaves you wanting another bottle.
With its robust aroma and balanced sweetness and bitterness, Altenmünster Urig Würzig is a versatile food accompaniment. It pairs perfectly with hearty snacks, fresh farmhouse bread, and spicy mountain cheese, but also enhances the flavor of grilled meat or roasts. The beer also adds a flavorful touch to a creamy soup or hearty stew.
The Altenmünster Urig Würzig is always a good choice and is a delicious treat with or without culinary accompaniment.
