Brewer's Advent Day #20: Graminger Kirta

There is a brewery where women reign supreme in the Gaming neighbourhood of Altötting, Bavaria. Three sisters operate the brewery and the Restaurant. Sabine Detter und Birgit Strasser are both master brewers, Iris Detter is a restaurant specialist. A good and very successful combination.

A lot of European Beer Star Awards went to the sisters. They can call their own one bronze and five gold Awards. Two of the golden ones for "Kirta", the today's beer, in the competition category South German-Style Hefeweizen Dunkel.

"Kirtaweissbier" was once brewed as a festival beer for the Altötting Autumn Festival - it was intended for serving in the festival tent. Today it is part of the brewery's regular range. Dark malt and a little roasted malt give the beer a mahogany color. Kirtaweissbier is fruity and malty. Fine noses will notice a slight chocolate touch.

Wow! These just keep getting better in this beer tasting Advent experience. When I lived in Deutschland, I was not a fan of weissbier. On on a visit in 2015, I started loving a good weissbier - this is an exceptional bier. I’m thinking on my next visit to Deutschland, I’ll need to visit a certain brewery in Altötting.

Not one of my favourites but I’m not a wheat fan. But certainly a good beer as they all have been!

Yeah, this was another surprising me for me! I loved it! While I generally love wheat beers, dark ones are hit or miss for me. Happy to really love this one. Also, loved the brewmaster and the host today. The brewmaster is a really great storyteller! Cheers! 🍺🎁🎄✨🍻🇺🇸🗽

I got only a slight smell from the beer, but was pleasant. I really taste the carmel and no banana like other wheat beers. Perhaps something a tiny bit like a citrus. Very nice and drinkable. The show, again, was very informative. I am learning so much of the history. Of course, I think it is wonderful for 3 women to brew and win medals. BREW LIKE A GIRL!!! Woot woot!

What a delicious change of pace. This dark wheat is very flavorful, slightly sweet, malty and bready taste. It is very refreshing and drinkable
