Description
Die Geschichte der Altenmünster Brauer Biere ist von Anfang an geprägt vom Anspruch, besondere Spezialitäten von einzigartigem Charakter zu brauen. Um sie dann in hochwertigen Bügelflaschen mit einzigartigem Relief anzubieten – übrigens als eine der ersten Brauereien in Deutschland.
Originally the Sailerbrauerei was mentioned in a document for the first time in 1544. After a long history 1967 is considered to be the decisive point in the history of the brewery. In that year the master brewer Gerd Borges and his then wife Gertrud, née. Sailer took over the management of the brewery and made the brewery a great success. After 36 years Borges decided to sell the enterprise. Since 2003 Sailerbräu and the brand Altenmünster Brauer Biere became through the Allgäuer Brauhaus part of the Radeberger Gruppe.

(special shape swing top bottle with handle) Dark amber colour with a foamy off-white medium head. I´ve suspected this one to be the same as the Winterbier Dunkel, but it is a tad sweeter and has more body. Slightly sweet toastmalty and nutty aroma with a whiff of hops. Bittersweet flavour, medium body, moderate carbonation. Light sweet and breadish malty taste, slightly roasted, dry and light hopbitter finish with a touch of dried fruits (raisins). OK.

I’m not sure if this is the one as bottle just said "Altenmünster" but as ABV 4.9% and ratings match so I’ll rate this here.
Hazy yellow, good big foamy head, lace. Fruity, lemony hoppy nose. Medium-bodied, malty, balanced lager with fruity hoppy finish. Just too much sweet bread here to be enjoyable.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pale, clear yellow colour with a decent - if quickly collapsing - head. Very citrusy aroma, but nicely balanced between the beer’s bitterness and the sweetness from the lemonade. And fortunately the artificial sweeteners doesn’t add any unpleasant tang. A nice quencher on a hot summer’s day. 021001

(Bottle 50 cl) 4,9% ABV in my version credited to "Sailerbräu Franz Sailer". Cloudy pale golden with a surprisingly absent head. Slightly acidic, fruity notes with a dry finish. Classical and pleasant Hefe. 220305

(Bottle 50 cl) This original version by "Privatbrauerei Franz-Joseph Sailer". Dark brown without much head. Loads of malt in here with an edge of caramel and some balancing bittering hops. A lovely Dunkel. 040201

Amber color, big head. Malty aroma, some wet cereals. Some malt flavor, light caramel, the bitterness appears too late. Reasonable beer, no emotions.

(Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy pilsener golden with almost no head. A very, very soft sweetish character and a somewhat flat and unclean palate. Wonder if this is oxidized or something, it appears odd. Not unpleasant as such, just very unusual. 210101
