About
The brewery was founded as a “Rittergutsbrauerei” (manorial brewery) in 1840 by the Heydenreich family. The brewery was completely rebuild in 1890/1891 and was renewed again in 1933. In 1946 the authorities confiscated the brewery and it was incorporated into the Weimar consumer cooperative the following year. With the collapse of the GDR, however, an eventful time began for the brewery: Several investors were interested in the brewery's continued existence, but one after the other failed in this project. So it happened that in 1995, after more than 150 years of history, no more beer was brewed in Ehringsdorf. In 1999 the Wagner family from Pößneck, owners of the Rosen Brauerei, acquired the brewery site. In 2002 the construction of a new brewhouse with fermentation and storage tanks started. Beer has been brewing again in Ehringsdorf since spring 2003, of course according to original recipes.

0,5 l bottle from kappldav123. Thanks a lot! Little bit old school label. Nice. Clear dark amber with a nearly two finger pale beige foamy head. Decent malty grainy with almonds on the nose. Taste starts malty and grainy, dry, toasted, surprising strong hop bitterness. Below average carbonated. Long lasting bitterness in the aftertaste.
