About
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.

0.5 l bottle from 'Biermarket.de', 5.5% abv, best before September 2022. Clear, golden with a medium large, foamy, stable, white head. Sweetish, gently yeasty-spicy aroma of banana, some clove, light vanilla and a touch of grains. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, quite yeasty-spicy taste of lots of banana, clove, vanilla and some grains, followed by a short, moderately bitter, rather yeasty-spicy, gently dry finish. Medium body, smooth and quite effervescent mouthfeel, average to lively carbonation. Nice!

Fruchtkompott, etwas frische Zitrone und Grapefruit. Auch bittere Noten sind klar erkennbar. Herb fruchtig - lecker. Ordentliche 5,5 % Alk. Guter Kompromiss aus Substanz und Süffigkeit. Ein anständiges helles Weizen. Einziger Kritikpunkt: Kommt nach einer Weile etwas dumpf rüber. Aber das ist angesichts der Qualitäten dieses Bieres Jammern auf hohem Niveau.
