Description
The brewery can look back on a long tradition. It was first mentioned in 1762 as a communal brewery. Only in 1923 the brewery became private property of Sigmund Pirzer and Hans Jakob. At that time it was called Bräuhaus Nittenau. Since 1996 the brewery has been known as the Nittenau Josef Jakob brewery.

Since 2006 the Nittenauer beers are produced in the newly built brewery in the Wulkersdorferstraße in Nittenau. The new production facility with its modern technology creates an ideal space for creative brewing technology, in which old processes are reconsidered, optimized and implemented to improve the product.

Sustainability and environmentally friendly production methods are of paramount importance. The brewery favours short trade routes and convincing freshness according to the motto "From the region - for the region". 94% of the energy required is covered by an own photovoltaic system. This makes the Nittenau brewery one of the few solar beer breweries in Germany (with a seal of quality).

Bottled, thx Fil! Hazy amber body, off-white head. Nail polish, red apple in the sweet aroma. Raisins, dried figs, light apple, some warming alcohol in the taste, quite okay.

Bottle picked up from Die Bierothek Regensburg and consumed at home Sunday 5th November 2023, listening to Tom Robinson and then Stuart Maconie on 6Music. We had smoked and BBQd Asian Pork Ribs tonight. Pours mid brown with a large off white edging towards light beige head. The aroma suggests sweetness to follow and it does, but back to the nose there is a little peaty edge, slight boozy vapours, it's a nice nose. It really is quite sweet in the mouth but then I was expecting this, some soft creaminess, a little oaky wood, whisky pops in but doesn't outstay its welcome, though Loz who isn't a fan of this would probably argue otherwise. Nice beer.
