A sip of Bamberg.
Bamberg’s strongest beer - at least that’s what Bamberg’s long-established brewery Fässla says, which is almost considered an institution in the cathedral city. The brewery with the dwarf in its logo has been brewing beer for more than 350 years and has mastered brewing accordingly. The classic in the range is the Zwergla , but their Pilsner and the Bambergator are also impressive!
The Doppelbock from the traditional Franconian brewery has an incredible 8.5% alcohol content and has a wonderfully soft malt character. The strong beer is brewed during the bock beer season between October and November, but is available in bottles well beyond this time. Fortunately!
The Bambergator flows into the glass in a clear chestnut brown and is crowned by a white foam. A delicious scent of rum-soaked raisins, dried apricots and creamy caramel hits your nose as soon as you open the bottle and invites you to take your first sip. This reveals a voluminous body that is supported by a finely sparkling carbon dioxide. On the palate, the Bambergator is malty: notes of freshly baked rye bread meet creamy caramel, candied, dark fruits and strong roasted malt. The alcohol provides a wonderful warmth that spreads from the mouth to the stomach. The finish has a heavy fruit sweetness that is balanced by a crisp bitterness.
An excellent Doppelbock that goes perfectly with Bamberg delicacies such as Bierhaxe and Schäuferla!
