Popularity of
German Beers
Did you know that Beer is an integral part of German culture? With
more than 1,000 breweries, Germany stands apart as the leader
compared to other manufacturers in the world. There are strict
quality laws that ensure the purity of the beer manufactured. This
helps the manufacturers to differentiate from what can be used and
what can't be. In short, Barley malt, hops and water are the only
ingredients allowed for German beer manufacturers. Because of the
quality check and stringent laws, one can find German beers to be
better in terms of quality.
Unlike other beers which offer aftertaste, German beers are known
for their special quality. Weizen, Koelsch and Altiber are some of
the well known German ale's. I bet you can't find better than
these. Although there are several names and brands to be
associated with, German beers offer high quality color, aroma and
taste. Helles, Dunkel, Bock, Pilsener are some of the reputed
German Lagers.
You can find Altiber which stands as a top fermented dark ale in
the lower areas of Germany. It offers a taste that you can’t
forget with yellow color. To follow, Rauchbier is ale that’s known
to have a smoky flavor with a color that’s pretty the same. Both
of these happen to be crowd favorites throughout Germany for their
great taste.
Lagers are popular as well in Germany and happen to be well known
in other parts of the world. One of the most famous and well known
beers that offer less of malt and more of hops in Germany is
Pilsener. It can be found anywhere for sale and is popular
especially throughout North America. No wonder several bars serve
it as one of the most liked and known dark lagers.
Germany is famous for its beer production and has over 4,000
unique brands of beers. Krombach, Beck, St. Pauli and Warsteiner
are some of the most popular North German companies that
manufacture beer of various tastes and ingredients. On the
contrary, South Germany accommodates one of the oldest breweries
in the world which is known by the name Benedictine Abbey. Its
evolution goes way back to 1040, impressive isn't it?
