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).

Bottle picked up from Sulzberger Bierhaus, Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm and consumed at home Wednesday 5th July 2023 listening to Steve Lamaq on 6 Music, just had a Chilli con Carne with Guacamole, Salsa etc. This pours mid gold with a white head, soft carbonation, there is a little bit of bitterness, simple but noted. Nice fruity bite, maltiness throughout, this is very good.
