Description
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.

33 cl bottle, BBE 09.11.2011
Yeast-like sticky stuff inside the neck of the bottle. Aroma has some alcohol, berries, some very ripe banana and hints of solvent and licorice. Very foamy palate. Flavour has ripe bananas, some spices and hints of alcohol. Warming alcohol and some solvent in the finish. Rather unique and interesting.

Bottle: Reddish-amber to copper coloured, relatively stable fluffy off-white head, moderate sweet-fruity (the usual suspects) and caramelly nose, distinctive nutty traces included; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, only medium bodied; traces of alcohol in the sweet caramelly-fruity finish, followed by some bitterness in the aftertaste. O.K., but not the finest Doppelbock.....
