About
The name Cramer has been synonymous with Warsteiner since 1753. Today the ninth generation of the clan, Catharina Cramer, carries on a long tradition of brewing excellence, backed by a rich German heritage, a high-quality range and a clear strategy to continue shaping the future of the German and the international beer market.
In 1753, farmer Antonius Cramer was asked to pay beer tax for the first time as his home brewing volumes surpassed by some way the volume allowed for personal consumption. Little did he know that his actions would kick-start a long-standing brewing tradition in Warstein – a small town located in the middle of the beautiful Arnsberg forest, in the heart of Germany’s Sauerland region. Since that date, the business has gone from strength to strength.

Relatively good. Can’t say it was bad, but just tasted like a standard hoppy, light caramel/chocolate flavor, I did enjoy it though.

Bottle. Pale yellow colour. Semi-stable white head. Weak lemonade aroma. The flavour is not too bad for a Radler, no aspartam. Less lemonade than beer, resulting in a drinkable beverage.

bottle - Pours yellow with a thin, fading head. Light malt aroma. The flavor is fairly typical for the big brewery, pale European beers. They have gotten the hops balanced nicely and the lively mouthfeel is not unpleasant. The finish is crisp. It’s not bad, but nothing to get excited about. I’ll agree that their Dunkel is better.
