Description
The Schlossbrauerei Kaltenberg was established in 1871 by Sigmund von Willibald. The Von Willibalds owned the castle and brewery till 1917 when the premises were acquired by the Schülein family. The Schülein heirs sold the castle and brewery in 1954 to the Wittelsbach family. The König Ludwig Schlossbrauerei Kaltenberg continues the 800-year tradition of brewing of the Wittelsbach dynasty. Prince Luitpold of Bavaria started in the 1970s to turn the small brewery in Kaltenberg Castle into a modern company.

The castle still houses part of the brewing installation of the König Ludwig Schlossbrauerei. 100,000 hectoliters of beer are brewed here every year. But most activities of the company are located in the large modern brewery in Fürstenfeldbruck. Since 2001 the König Ludwig Schlossbrauerei Kaltenberg has been a 50/50 joint venture with Warsteiner.

Bottle from Orterer, Garching. Pale golden body, lively carbonation. Floral, sweet aroma, dryish herbal notes. Sweetish, clean, floral notes, herbal, mildly bitterish towards the finish. Actually tasty enough! A good beer.

Brown with a creamy, light beige head. Aroma full of berry jam over toffee. Taste is bitter, but that thin, metallic bitterness that I just associate with hop extracts. A toasted character, a caramel sweetness, and a fruity, prune juice aspect keep it interesting. Medium-bodied, mild carbonation. Not bad, but not a first class bock.

König Ludwig Weissbier Kristall. Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
