This creation from our brewmaster is based on a 100-year-old recipe of Ottakringer and for sure will make hearts of beer lovers beat faster. This historic beer composition made from Viennese malt, melanoidin malt and the finest Saaz hops captivates with its striking, amber reflections. The Wiener Original has a fine nutty note, and a flavour that transcends into an elegant malt aroma. The Wiener Original leaves a distinct yet gently bitter after-taste.

Die Optik zeigt sich bernsteinfarben mit einer deutlichen Trübung. Die feinporige, cremefarbene Schaumkrone ist dabei flaumig-stabil und hält dabei mäßig gut. In der Nase überaus spelzige, getreidige Aromen, die an frisch gedroschene Gerste erinnern. Leicht röstig-karamellige Noten legen sich, genauso wie grasig-hopfige dazu. Durchaus gut! Der Antrunk kommt weich-spritzig, getreidig, leicht röstig-malzig und macht richtig Lust auf dieses Bier. Am Gaumen macht es einen etwas einfacheren Eindruck. Leicht malzig, karamellig bis röstig und holzig-würzig, aber sonst fast ein wenig langweilig. Da haben Duft und Antrunk dann doch ein bisschen mehr Hoffnung gemacht. Haptik und Süffigkeit hingegen sind aber absolut gut! Es macht durchaus Spaß, dieses Bier zu trinken. Der Nachtrunk gestaltet sich so, dass die Aromen langsam ausklingen. Es bleibt eine zarte feinherbe Note, sowie ein unerwartet nussiger (Walnuss) Charakter über. Fazit: Toller Start und überraschendes Finish. Im Mittelteil jedoch etwas zu langweilig. Dennoch ein gutes Bier und meines Erachtens underrated!

500ml can. Pours clear dark gold with a medium-sized off white head. Aroma is grain, toasted bread, spicy hop and caramel notes. Taste is dry, toasted malt, hops, grassy bitterness. Light to medium bitter finish. Not that much caramel, which surprised me. Encroaching on polotmavy territory.

Not a bad Vienna lager, lots of toasted bread, toffee, and apple, underlined by a gentle floral bitterness and a yeasty, bready fade. Very easy to drink, even if there’s the slightest smidge of Euro skunk.

A Vienna lager from Vienna. I guess this is the real deal. 1 pint can from The Mansion. Pours a clear deep gold color with a khaki head and excellent retention. Great lacing too. Malty aroma. Malty lager flavor to match the nose and a bready finish. A little Euro lager flavor and not as sweet or caramelly as I expected. Slightly crisp mouthfeel. Clean and smooth. No bitterness. A very good Euro lager.
