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.

0,5 l bottle from Erzengel. Thanks a lot! Golden in the glass, darker than expected with a more than one finger white foamy head. Looks good. Smooth grainy caramel on the nose. Taste starts malty carmel, little bit apple fruity in the background. Mid bitterness. Mid carbonation. Easy drinker.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass deep golden, nice head. Starts mild, malty, modest dry. A bit moldy. Some hints of spices, some grasy notes as well. Finish more balanced. Okay.
