This Round challenges us to imagine what would be the development of a beer tasting . is the first time to participate but hopefully not the last. As I traveled to Munich, I thought like tasting Bavarian beers. For those who do not know that special about this region must know that is the richest in Germany, which is the third region of the world in beer production and what is more surprising, virtually all is for personal use. Many already know that Munich is the city of Oktoberfest and all the beers of the region are governed by the law of purity (Reinheitsgebot German) . And if you talk more about it later.
The most popular beers in the region are Helles, Weissbier the (also Weizenbier or Weißbier, German wheat beer) and Dunkle (dark beer). That is why I will propose tasting beers includes all three types. In reality is based on a few beers that brought my girl from Munich, and so I can follow the explanation with a photograph.
This tasting starts with two beers Helles. The Augustiner and Spezial of Bayerisches Brauhaus Tegernsee Herzoglich . The first belongs to one of the oldest breweries in the city of Munich (Right now there are only six) and the quintessential session beer there. This beer is very hard to find outside the region, so that only you can provide if you pass by there. We found its flavor more intense than the second Helles is that this proposal and made us thanks for your label, with the arms and colors (White and blue) in the region, for their alleged quality. If you go there you will find this type of beer anywhere, usually on tap. Was the most affordable is the Löwenbräu , although me is my least favorite. Virtually all Bavarian breweries produce this type, although if you want a recommendation to go away to their own city of Munich as Hofbräu , whose restaurant is one of the most famous and visited the city, or Spaten Hacker Pschorr, one of my favorites. 
Our tasting continued with two specialty beers. In this place would come the Weissbier, but in our case we chose two seasonal beers. First the special beer from Hacker-Pschorr Oktoberfest, this is a dark lager but more intense than normal. We will have to try it there, in context. The second was a Paulaner Salvator, a dual beer Malta. In theory this should produce only between February and March, but in this case is made throughout the year. Is still a lager, but is even more intense. Recommend this type Märzenbier Hacker-Pschorr, one must buy it on time, or the Aventinus, much can be found at any time and easily out of Bavaria. As beer Weissbier propose the Schneider Weissbier , and if you can not find it, the more commercial Erdinger or Paulaner. As a last resort Franziskaner.
To end our tasting, to propose a couple of dark beers and Dunkles Dunkles style Weissbier. The first is a beer from the monastery, the Andechser Doppelbock Dunkel. We loved it and have beers from all traditional styles. All excellent. The second was the Schofferhofer Dunkles Hefeweizen. I bought is in Valencia, in the supermarket Corte Ingles, if anyone is interested. I bought it because it was a Weissbier and I Dunkles served to complete the tasting. Fulfilled its function. Hope you liked it. To the experts that I have not done a good description of styles and flavors, but to me those things I can not do well. At least I hope that if someone travels to Germany, this small collection will serve to choose a good gift for your friends. I try to do me every time I go.
