Description
Johann Gottfried Glauner decided in 1877 to put the local, closed-down brewery, back on its feet. He sent his son, Karl Albert, to Weihenstephan to learn the skills of beer brewing. Karl returned in 1880 as a master of his trade and with all the energy of his young years, determined to brew "the best beer far and wide". It was indeed a beer destined to outlive its numerous local competitors. To this day the Alpirsbacher beers have lost nothing of their popularity... and the Glauner family continues to brew their excellent beer in Alpirsbach in the fourth generation.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Bit average Helles with a sweetish grainy malt aroma and some mildly grassy noble hops. Light to moderate bitter, light sweet.

50cl Fles, ergens in DLD gekocht. Als Weizen Kristall. Mistig (!) gouden kleur, witte kraag. Wat banaan, tarwe, boter, romig, nah dit is weer een typisch gevalletje Kristallweizen, saai, futloos, en vooral niet echt lekker.

Picked up from Äpfel Getrankemarkt Moosburg and consumed at home Friday 20th March and again today Monday 23rd March 2026, we're still listening to The Notwist I didn't have Beef Carbonnade, when the Beef Carbonnade was defrosted I realised that I actually had a Broccoli cheese to accompany the Cauliflower Cheese and Roasted Carrots 😂. Pours clear gold with a mid sized white head, the head didn't last long. Straightforward hell, the bitterness is subtle but it builds a little, soft mouthfeel, a bit on the sweet side. Score: 6.5

Hellgoldene, klare Farbe. In der Nase fällt ein winziger Hauch Pflaume / Zwetschge auf. Beim ersten Schluck merke ich sofort, dass das Bier etwas trockener rüberkommt, als ich das bei einem Hellen normalerweise gewohnt bin. Die Bitternoten bewegen sich aber in einem normalen Rahmen. Geschmacklich sind Frucht, florale Noten und Getreide (in dieser Reihenfolge) bestimmend. Durchaus schmackhaft, erfrischend und süffig. Der eine oder andere Pilstrinker dürfte damit auch ganz gut zurechtkommen.

It is a regular and classical dunkel beer on the Bavarian way, a little bit smocked, malty, sweet, some hop, well balanced, not bad, 06.09.16, drinking it at Prélaz, buying it or at the Aligre place or in Freiburg am Breisgau.
