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 Edeka, Steine Park, Freising. Consumed at home Tuesday 4th May 2021. We have a Chilli with Tortillas tonight, listening to on 6Music. Pours hazy yellow coloured with a white head. Some citrussy flavours, wheatiness throughout, as expected it's thin and a little watery, it's ok.

Bottle. Cloudy dark orange with a righteous white head. Aroma of bananas, yeast, lemons and a little bit of bubblegum. Taste follows aroma plus some wheat and clove. Rather strong lemon presence leads to a pretty acidic finish. Moderate grainy bitterness. Strong carbonation. Light body. A decent Hefeweizen.

Bottle shared by Joen. Hazy light orange color, average sized white to off-white head. Smell and taste wheat, a light sweetness, a light grainy touch in the background but also a distant hint of oranges and banana. Soft smooth mouthfeel, suitable body. Not bad.

0.5 bottle. Very nice orange unfiltered color with beautiful white head. Very intense, grainy, yeasty aroma, but not very sensitive to the aroma of citrus, except for those who smell like yeast like a banana. (which is natural). It also has a fruity taste, opening more grapefruit, with orange bananas and then concentrated Bavarian wheat. Carbonation is also found. Nice!

Nagyon szép narancssárga szűretlen szín, gyönyörű fehér hab. Nagyon intenzív, gabonás, élesztős illat, citrusosság illatában nem nagyon érződik, kivéve aki banánként érzi az élesztő illatát. (ami természetes). Ízre érződik gyümölcsösség is, inkább grapefruitosan nyit, mellette narancs banán, majd a tömény bajor búza. Büfi is finom :) szénsavasság is el van találva. Nice!
