About
In 1758 the first master brewer, Peter Still from Fischbach, was able to start work on the Hammersee. In 1804 the Electorate of Bavaria decided to privatize the brewery. In 1884 Johann Baptist Jacob, great-grandfather of the current generation of owners, Marcus and Friedrich Jacob, acquired the company. The next two generations Jacob (each with first name Friedrich) took over his pioneering spirit and the iron will to keep the company up to date for the benefit of quality and employees. The continuation of the family tradition is assured even today. For the future, the next generation of Jacob is ready to successfully carry the centuries-old values into the fifth generation.

Bottle, not sure if from Fil or Ryan. Muddy light red-brown body, lasting off-white head. Cooked fruit, floral notes, and some caramel in the aroma, okay. Sweetish taste, bit phenolic, lightly herbal, somewhat floral, a buncha dried fruit. Old.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. Clear straw gold. Slim lacing lasting white foam. Herbal hop leaf and grass clippings on top of semi sweet brioche malts. Super fresh bright and clean with notable hop bitterness. Crisp just about dry finish. Great pils on the bitter end of the spectrum.

Had this at Butz Gasthof & Metzgerei, Wörth an der Donau Saturday 8th March 2025, we're cycling along the Donau Radweg today but currently we're sat outside, it's getting warmer but there's still a chill in the air. Pours clear gold with a large white head, there's a slight alcohol free taint on the nose and in the mouth but it is ok, nice mouthfeel, refreshing. Score 6.1

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is bready wheat with spicy yeast, banana, and citrussy hints. Flavour is medium sweet and light bitter. Body is medium but feels a bit weak. Drinkable Hefe but could be better.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Sweet brown malt aroma with caramel, notes of dried fruits and lightly spicy. Sweet almost syrupy flavour with a light to moderate bitterness. Body is above medium with a mildly sticky texture. A bit sweet for my taste but pretty richly malty Doppelbock.

Аромат банановый, есть специи, почти нету дрожжей, немного самой пшенице, карамель небольшая. Цвет бледно темно коричневый. Пенка неплохая, но не особо стойкая. Вкус такой же. Есть много бананов, прямо четко и ярко. Затем уже карамелька и специи. При глокте немного водянисто, нету газации еще сбалансированной. Намеки на дрожжи. В целом хорошая темная пшеничка и все.
