A lovely mild Grevensteiner Original

In the 19th century, brothers Carl and Anton Veltins brewed an exquisite beer at the Grevensteiner Brewery that became popular far beyond the region's borders.
The C. & A. Veltins Brewery is continuing this tradition with its “Grevensteiner” beer.
The naturally cloudy Grevensteiner Original is a smooth country beer brewed with soft spring water and freshly harvested hops. Traditional malts give it its amber color and full-bodied aroma—true to the German purity law.
This is the story, the brewery tells directly on the backlabel of the bottle:

Although this is obviously for marketing purposes the whole story absolutely makes sense! The Veltins Brewery is a very traditional one and their country beer is a very lovely one!

First of all I prepared everything for a nice evening at the fireplace. Including #icecubes of course.

Look & Feel

The amber like liquid pours with no drama in the glass. Nice and dense foam is built up, but not too much and not too long. Perfect!

Taste

Goodness! A very mild yet fresh beer unfolded its happy taste in my mouth. Really - for sitting in front of a nice fire and a Netflix movie I cannot imagine a better drink.

Facts & Figures

With its 5.2 % Vol of alcohol the beer is located in the medium range although the alcohol is hardly to recognize due to the unusual mild taste. That is a heads up, because one could tend to drink to much before noticing its intoxicating effect.
The bottle contains 0.33 liters in the typical german "Bierbeule" shape.

By shooting the pics I noticed the best before date on the label: Sep. 04th 2025. WHAT??? 🤷‍♀ It was absolutely delicious anyway!
