Freibier slot review (Novomatic)

Ein bier, zwei bier, freibier! Slot games, beer and busty Alpine ladies

The insane success of the Bierhaus slot must be within our reach, too, Novomatic must have thought.

The Freibier slot game may, at first glance, look a lot like the wonderful Bierhaus video slot but that’s where the similarities end.

The 40 win lines, stacked wilds and a free spins bonus with even more wilds provide Freibier not only jolly entertainment but also sky-high payouts. Of course, it is and remains a Novomatic slot game. And on Novomatic slots, you can usually hit big-wins, possibly even super big-wins.

Freibier gameplay and features

There are 40 fixed paylines, and the game is played on 5 reels with 4 symbols per reel. The betting range ranges from a minimum of $€ 0.40 to a maximum of $€ 40 per spin. This makes this online slot very suitable for both the low betting player and the high roller.

Symbols and payouts

Just as to be expected with a German Oktoberfest themed video slot, Freibier is about three things: drinking (a lot of) beer, eating and singing. The symbols fit in well with this festive theme: the wilds consist of beer mugs, the scatters are beer kegs, and the pretzels and large chunks of roasted ham perfectly complete the right vibe.

Of course, a beautiful busty waitress is also a must. The one from Bier Haus is called Heidi (go figure). Let us call Freibier’s waitress, Anna? Five of these ladies on an active payline will net you 25 x the total bet. Five hams get you 10 x the bet and the chocolate hearts and pretzels award you 6 x the bet.

The card symbols 9, 10, J, Q, K and A are the lower value symbols of the game and are worth 2.5 x and 4 x your bet.
The wild symbols are stacked and can result in nice payouts.

The free spins bonus: up to 20 free spins with extra wilds

Three or more scattered beer kegs activate the free spins bonus. A nice detail is that you get another free respin with 3 or 4 scatters to try to spin even more scatters.

3, 4 or 5 beer barrels will amount to 12, 15 or 20 free spins, plus a cash win.

During the free spins, extra wilds are added to reels 2, 3 and 4 for each spin, resulting in some very nice payouts. It is therefore rare for the Freibier bonus round to be disappointing.

Our verdict on Freibier

The Freibier is an entertaining slot which looks great, certainly for a Novomatic title.

The bonus rounds can be especially lucrative if you manage to get the 15 or 20 free spins – this will almost inevitably result in crazy amounts of wilds you need to bring home that mega win.

Cheers! Prost!

4 stars out of 5.
