About
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.

330 ml bottle from Bier Temple, in Linz, Austria. Pours a crystal clear gold color with a white head and good retention. Good lacing. Standard pale lager aroma with no bready notes. The taste follows the nose: Standard pale malt flavor with very light bread in the finish. Clean, smooth, and uncomplicated. Uber repeatable. Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Low bitterness. Another quality German lager. Prost!

0,5 l bottle. Pours crystal clear yellow with medium almost immediately dissipating white head. Aroma is malty, a bit of caramel and some grassy and citrus hop notes. Unfortunately there is also a bit of cardboard. Taste is medium sweet and low bitter. Finish is pleasantly bitter. Decent and drinkable, but nothing special.

Meh. Tastes a bit Budweiser-y.

Ljust gyllengul klar vätska med en gräddmjuk skumkrona. Arom av ljust bröd och lätt gräsighet. Rejält mjuk munkänsla med en närvarande maltighet som avvägs bra mot en neutral till lätt gräsig beska.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours clear copper with a creamy, khaki topping. Light-medium sweet flavour with notes of toasted caramel, bready malts, a little earthy hop, crackers, biscuits. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Nice toasted biscuit and caramel finish, a little leafy bitterness, bready all around, a hint of chocolate. Really pleasant.

Notes from March 2011 Stout season is over. Hooray beer! 11.2oz bottle from Good Beer. Poured into a Carlsberg Pils glass. Pasty, off-white head. It comes to rest as a permanent dollop of cream atop my beer. Uniform spackle. Clear, pale, golden body. Smells of caramelized Euro malt & a light zest of minty/herbal/metallic hops. Bit mundane. Taste is sweet like low salt Ritz crackers. Halfway in is a spot of herbal hops that turn more irony as they linger. Empty finish. Dainty little thing. Watery. ABV is really suspect. Carbonation is soft & lacking. Probably the lightest Helles I've ever had. Not crisp enough to drink in quantity. Too light to bother to import. :/
