Edel Spezialbier Beer (@ABKbeer) By @SpectreUK

I sometimes feel a little late to the beer party. I'm especially feeling late to the party on this Edel Spezialbier, which was produced by ABK Brewery in Bavaria. They have been brewing beer since 1308, and I don't mean since early this afternoon. So brewing for 700 years and they are still going strong. Although I sometimes feel that old myself after a long workout session. I could definitely do with a 5.8% in volume pick me up at the moment. I have a 500ml bottle of that pick me up right now. So I'm going to pop it open.

Edel Spezialbier Is a deep golden fairly bubbly lager. There was a herbal hop smell on opening the bottle, with the yeastiness that sometimes comes with a lager and then sweet malts at the back of the aroma. On taste this traditional Bavarian lager had a crisp bite of hops to begin with followed closely by a caramel sweetness from the malts. Very nice indeed.

I found Edel Spezialbier a very flavoursome, very pleasant yet excitably bubbly lager. I found this lager went rather well washing down my IKEA style meet balls, chips, peas and Lingonberry sauce for dinner.
