In Bamberg, at the wonderful inn on Dominikanerstraße, from Ash Wednesday to Easter, a beer called "Fastenbier," the Lent beer, is consumed. It was historically produced to replace solid meals - according to the saying "Liquida non frangunt ieunum" (meaning "liquids do not break the fast"). Amber, bottom-fermented, unfiltered, and unpasteurized, it is a beer with a noticeable smoky profile on the nose, but in the mouth, it reveals an elegant herbal hint. Its good body fullness and the alcohol content of 5.9% make it an excellent "Brotzeit," that is, a great snack, in this spring season.
