DESCRIPTION
This is brewed by Munich's oldest independent brewery which has its roots in the city's ancient Augustinian monastery. More deeply coloured than many other weißbeers this is, nevertheless, a true classic of the type coming as it does from Munich's oldest independent brewery. It has all the distinctive yeasty and banana like aromas you'd expect together with a touch of delicate spiciness on the palate.
A taste of a true Bavarian classic.
Style - Weissbier ABV 5.4% - Moderate Strength
PRODUCER
Augustiner Brau Munchen
The first mention of this ancient brewery established by Augustinian monks is back in 1328. And it was under the control of the monastery that brewing was carried on continuously for several centuries until it was acquired by Anton and Therese Wagner in the early nineteenth century. Since then they've been a privately owned family business.
The current brewery on Landsbergerstrasse, a landmark in central Munich, was built in 1883 and reconstructed after WWII following extensive bombing damage.
They've been part of the official Oktoberfest since 1903, one of just six breweries who taek part. Until recent years their beers have not been seen much outside of their native Bavaria, but these days a little of the production does find its way abroad but usually only in quite limited quantities.
