About
History goes back to 1442 but it is first mentioned as a 'Brauhaus' in 1487. In the following centuries, ownership and names changed many times till 1933 when the brewery was acquired by brewer Ferdinand Wirtz and his son Cornelius Wirtz. Since then the brewhouse is owned by the Wirtz family. The brewery was destroyed during the war but afterwards the 'Brauhaus' continued its activities though the beer was brewed under contract elsewhere.

Pours clear, medium colored golden blonde. Medium latge white head, fading fairly fast. Scent is crunchy, fresh malts, bready, whiff of coockies. Fairly silent on the yeast. Taste is surprisingly bitter, crispy maltyness, fullbodied aftertaste, malty (bready). Silent on hoparoma, but prominent bitterness. Very balanced, fresh, and tasty.
