Snagged a cheap swing top bottle dated best by 26.01.25, wouldn’t spend more than I did on beers from this brewery, a local staple that sponsors many restaurants and events but churns out consistently mediocre beers. Anyway, this is actually and surprisingly just a bit above mediocre. Maybe bc I haven’t drank in a while and bc this is one of my favorite styles, but it’s a passably tasty unfiltered lager. Has some features of the style with a decent yeast and barn presence. Don’t go out of your way for this but if it’s there, you can feel confident that it’s beer.

Review: 0,5l flip top brown bottle of Schwaben Bräu Zwickl Kellerbier: 5.6% vol.
Got from a German supermarket, a four pack, coming in a very cool looking logo of a brewer and his beer, happy with his accomplishment! An unfiltered traditional cloudy beer.
Have to say it looks absolutely fantastic on pour, a very lovely frothy white head appearing with a beer that has a gorgeous golden colour with a deep look.
A very decent head that sticks around, some good lacing, and with the deep hazy orange look, we have a great looking beer to admire.
On the nose one gets a very, very malty aroma, very clear and easy to find. An ok malty and yeasty smell, not bad at all.
On to the taste, very soft and creamy on the tongue initially, crispy and inoffensive, not much flavouring to taste and very, very smooth. Light and not really hitting the spot.
A lot of malts and some light grains, as expected, and a bit of fruit, but very light and very boring. Kind of a waste of time, with nothing really to get stuck into in terms of prominent or excitable tastes or flavours, dont think I will be buying this one again.
A pretentious beer with nice packaging that tastes like cheap supermarket fare, disappointing, was expecting much more

Hazy pale lager, Good white foam. Malt and yeast flavor with light hops. Medium light body, Not a bad beer.

0.5l bottle, tulip, looks like best before 4 Sep 18.
This one is definitely unfiltered, the golden haze is unmistakable and the substantial froth is really nice to behold.
A combination of hearty yeast, grainy malt, and lemon zest make up the aroma.
My first impression is sour dough, another beautiful creation of yeast. Light tart and citrus zest flavors reinforce this. I lose the graininess here.
It’s got a well balanced feel; light medium body with moderate carbonation that is on the low mid end of the spectrum for lagers.
This has a lighter character than Zoigl and some citrus hops that are a departure from most German beers I’ve experienced.
