Weihenstephaner's 1516 Kellerbier is an unfiltered lager brewed in 2016 to mark the 500th anniversary of the Bavarian Reinheitsgebot (beer purity law). The beer is crafted with the rare hop variety Hallertauer Record, now cultivated by only a single farmer. Naturally hazy and unfiltered, this Kellerbier opens with a soft, mellow character. Rich malt sweetness emerges on the palate, layered with delicate fruity and earthy undertones. The hop bitterness remains subdued and restrained, finishing clean and dry. Smooth and easy-drinking, with a crisp, lively carbonation and light body, this beer reflects Weihenstephan's commitment to timeless German brewing tradition.
