Description
In the winter of 2016, the two Augsburgers, Enzo Frauenschuh and Matthias Gruber, founded FrauGruber Brewing (FRAUenschuh + GRUBER = FrauGruber) and brewed their first beers as Gipsy brewers in spring 2017 in the Old Factory in Gundelfingen. It quickly became clear that all the ideas, experiments and further developments would be very difficult to implement without an own brewery and the freedom that goes with it. In order to grow quantitatively and conceptually, FrauGruber had to grow. We managed to realize our dream of having our own brewery in January 2020. So we came to our goal of creating a kind of "way of life" and building a community with which we can share the enthusiasm and passion for beer. Our aim is to test and live the incredible variety of beer, to act sustainably and especially to give beer a higher value.

Tap. Milky yellow-golden color with white head. Aroma is passion fruit, peach, apricot, some milky yeasts. Taste is juicy tropical fruity, muddled milky yeasts, biscuity malts, slightly warming finish. Silky mouthfeel. A bit too yeasty to be a total winner, but nicely balanced and with nice fruit aromas!

Tap. Milky yellow color with white head. Aroma is grassy hops, milky yeasts, tropical fruits with mango, pineapple and passion fruit. Taste is milky yeasts, biscuity malts, juicy hops again, some sweetness. Silky mouthfeel. Quite surprising for the ABV, works! 7-3-7-4-15. Tap, 2018 version. I like about this beer that it is not overhopped and not aggressive, and not too grassy, with zero hopburn. Good one!

15/VIII/17 - 33cl can @ Help-Me-Get-to-10K-In-Time-Tasting 2 (home) - BB: 14/X/17 (2017-1238) Thanks to Tinus for sharing the can!

Clear dark brown beer, small aery beige head, unstable, dissipates quickly. Aroma: nice roast, caramel, chocolate, sweet impression, bit yeasty. MF: soft carbon, medium to full body. Taste: pretty sourish start, which was rather surprising, lots of coffee, dry, bit hoppy, some cinnamon. Aftertaste: more chocolate, sourish notes, hoppy finish, very roasted with a fruity touch to it.

Draught @ Camba Münich tap room. Aroma has fruity hops and pineapple juice. Foamy palate. Flavour has orange, some grapefruity hops and pineapples. Finishes with herbal-like harsh bitterness and fruity hops fighting each other. The latter one is, luckily, winning.
