Description
Die Hasen-Bräu ist eine der ältesten Brauereien Augsburgs. Ihre Wurzeln reichen zurück bis ins Jahr 1464. Augsburger Bier durfte nur aus Wasser, Malz und Hopfen hergestellt werden, so verlangte es das Stadtrecht von Augsburg bereits 1156 - also 360 Jahre vor dem Erlass des bayerischen Reinheitsgebots. Gebraut und sogleich ausgeschenkt wurde seinerzeit in kleinen Hausbrauereien auch die Hasen-Bräu geht auf eine solche Hausbrauerei zurück: die Schänke "Zu den drey Glass". Matthias Rösch kaufte 1815 die mittlerweile unter dem Namen ''Zum Hasen“ bekannte Braustätte. In 1899 wurde eine neue Braustätte mit maschineller Produktion auf dem Gelände des ehemaligen Kapuzinerklosters an der Maximilianstraße in betrieb genommen.

In 1996 wurde die Inselkammer-Gruppe Hauptaktionär der brauerei. Ab 2003 erwarb Inselkammer den übrigen Aktienanteil und integrierte Hasen-Bräu zusammen mit Tucher Bräu in die Brau und Brunnen AG. Die Oetker-Gruppe kaufte 2004 die Brau und Brunnen AG und gliederte Hasen-Bräu in die konzerneigene Radeberger Gruppe ein.

(bottle) Clear, slightly greenish golden colour with a medium-sized foamy white head. Dusty, light-sweet and strawy malty nose with very shy hoppy notes in the back. Light-sweet flavour, slim shaped body with a crispy mouthfeel. Decent malt-character with slightly growing herbal accents; moderately dry, sweet-bitter finish. A bit boring, just drinkable (16.07.08).

The bottle looks like a cheap beer. The beer in the glass is quite light, not very turbid. Tastes washy, not very yeasty and fruity. Nothing special.

Bottle. Golden, low visible carbonation, low foam. Straw aroma. Peppery edgy malt base, light body, a hint of grassy hops. Flatisch mouthfeel. Not super inspired.
