Berentzen Apfeltaartje
The well-known Apfelkorn, but with the flavor of freshly baked apple pie. Smooth and sweet, and with a swirl of whipped cream and a pinch of cinnamon, the pub's best-known dessert shot.
Apfelkorn as apple pie
Berentzen Apfeltaartje is Apfelkorn with the flavor of apple pie. Its base is a distillate made from 100% wheat, with German apple varieties harvested at just the right time. The flavor of baked apple pie is then added, making it smoother and sweeter than the fresh-tasting Apfelkorn.
At 14.5% alcohol, Apfeltaartje is the lightest of the Berentzen family; Apfelkorn is 18%. It is made to be enjoyed ice-cold as a shot, preferably with a swirl of whipped cream and a pinch of cinnamon. Exactly how you would eat a slice of apple pie.
