Description
1328 wurde die Brauerei erstmals namentlich genannt. In 1803 mussten im Rahmen der Säkularisation die Mönche das Kloster verlassen und es wurde aufgelöst. Nur die Klosterbrauerei wurde anfänglich unter staatlicher und später unter privater Führung weitergeführt.

1829 erwarben Anton und Therese Wagner, eine Brauerfamilie aus Attaching bei Freising, die Sudstätte. Seitdem ist die Brauerei eine bürgerliche Privatbrauerei in Familienbesitz. Therese Wagner erwarb in 1857 einen Lagerkeller an der Landsberger Straße. Auf dieses Gelände wurden später die gesamten Produktionsanlagen verlegt. Edith Haberland-Wagner, die letzte Verwandte mit dem Nachnamen Wagner und Haupteigentümerin der Brauerei, vermacht in 1996 ihre Anteile der von ihr gegründeten Edith-Haberland-Wagner-Stiftung. Nun hält die Stiftung etwas über 50 Prozent der Augustiner Brauerei.

(bottle) Light golden colour with foamy white head, nice lacing. The nose is more hoppy & fruity than malty. The taste is the other way round: cereals, fine malts; medium bodied with a creamy texture and grainy finish. A good Helles from my birthplace Munich.

Bottle. Toffee/banana aroma. Caramel color with medium head but completely clear. Watery malt - primary taste of toffee with only the slightest hint of banana. Way too weak for a hefe with an unusual taste.

Bottle. A very strong barley malt aroma - initially smelled skunked but mellowed with sitting. Light yellow color with small head. A nice smooth malt flavor with slight flowery hops. Very tasty. Good flavor - just don’t let the aroma get to you.
