(English below) Gemeinsamen mit unseren Freunden von der Deschutes Brewery haben wir ein vollmundiges Zwickl gebraut. Die einzigartige Komposition aus unserem Bitburger Siegelhopfen aus dem Herzen der Eifel sowie den amerikanischen Aromahopfen-Sorten Citra und Mosaic, die in Yakima (USA) angebaut werden, verleiht unserem Bitburger Dry Hop’d Zwickl dabei seinen fruchtig-hopfigen Geschmack. Bitburger and US brewer Deschutes' friendship began when Deschutes won the ‘Bitburger Challenge’ in the USA in 2019. The task was to brew an especially good German Pilsner, with the winner getting the opportunity to brew with Bitburger. Bitburger and Deschutes share many common values, such as a love of the craft of brewing and a passion for the best ingredients. Together, they decided to brew a triple hopped and naturally cloudy Zwickl beer. Symbolic of their intercontinental brewing friendship, it is brewed in Bitburg in the classic German beer style, but using American Citra and Mosaic aromatic hop varieties as well as Bitburger Siegelhopfen from the Eifel National Park. Zwickelbier, also known as a Zwickel, Zwickl, or Kellerbier, is an unfiltered, naturally cloudy beer that is usually bottled immediately after being stored in the tank. Zwickelbier is now widespread, especially in Bavaria, but actually has its origins in Upper Franconia, where this tasty, spicy beer was brewed and offered primarily in smaller local breweries.

Pours clearish caramel with a thick buff head. Aroma provides floral, toasty malt, dry hops, subtle fruity notes. Flavor yields woody hops, toasty malt, citrus, apple and floral tones. Texture adds decent body and peppy fizz. (Dry) Hop to it.

Pint can pours with a murky deep copper colored body that has thin golden hued edges and supports a full off white head of foam. Thea aroma offers up spicy to vaguely floral hops followed by a layer of mildly sweet smelling bread like malts. The taste delivers a fair amount of the modestly sweet bready and malty notes. The hops quickly kick in and provide some nice balance bitter spicy to floral to sort of woody hoppiness. This comes across a little less than fresh, defying the point of the style, but still provides a nice experience.
