Description
1567: Erste urkundliche Erwähnung der Schlossbrauerei Moos. 1789: Johann Kaspar Graf von Preysing legt die Brauereien Aholming und Moos zusammen. Er errichtet aus den Steinen den Grundstock der heutigen Brauerei. 1960: Graf Ulrich Philipp von und zu Arco-Zinneberg fasst sämtliche Brauereien, die im Besitz der gräflichen Familie sind, unter dem Namen Arcobräu zusammen. Stammhaus wird die bis dahin sogenannte Schloßbrauerei Moos.

Wenn die Freude überschäumt, gute Laune nicht zu bremsen ist und die Lust auf ein gutes Bier am größten ist, dann ist man mitten im Leben, mitten in Niederbayern. Da, wo seit fast 500 Jahren unser Arcobräu gebraut wird mit viel Tradition, mit jeder Menge Erfahrung und freilich auch nur mit den besten Zutaten: Unsere Hefe beispielsweise aus eigener Reinzucht, dem allerbesten Hopfen aus der Hallertau oder dem Brauwasser aus unserem 96 Meter tiefen Mineralwasser-Brunnen. Das schmeckt nicht nur den Menschen, die hier leben, sondern mittlerweile Bierkennern in ganz Bayern. Nicht ohne Grund ist das Gräfliche Brauhaus Arcobräu mittlerweile der größte Bier-Lieferant von Volksfesten in Ostbayern.

50cl bottle from Aldi. Amber with a loose white head; slightly musty, grassy aroma; fresh grassy flavour with a viscous body, and some honey and toast; and a slight prickle to finish. A rather good lager.

Bottle: Deep chestnut-amber coloured, clear, medium-sized lacy off-white head, sweet dark-malty nose with dried fruits, nuts and toasted malt underneath; moderate sweetish-bitter flavour, medium bodied; slightly lingering caramelly-sweet and also bitter finish. Well drinkable, not too exciting Doppelbock...

Aldi UK stocking this: 500ml bottle, best before 20 Sept 2013, poured @ home into a UK pint sleeve on 06 Nov 2012. Looks OK, usual Pilsner golden colour, clean, clear, etc, etc, the head vanished before it arrived, I hate that! Gets an average score because my lips might have had some Cambozola remains on them and that would have killed the head. Nose is hop, grain and hay with some bready malts arriving as the beer warmed a little. The taste was sweeter than the aroma suggested with the malts pushing the hop content towards the rear, the aftertaste and finish were semi-sweet too, no hop bitterness or dryness, so maybe this has some Christmassy notes after all. I wondered at first about the ’Winterbier’ handle. Still couldn’t detect any spice or ’winterness’ in the brew, but it was tasty and the body wasn’t ’lager-light’. I actually enjoyed this: for a cheap supermarket brew it knocks the socks off most of the ’designer’ Lagers/Pilsners and I’ll be getting some more for my guests over the festive season.

Draft at Snallygaster Beer Fest in Washington DC. Poured a golden color with a small, solid white head. Aroma was sweet malts, crisp grassy notes, some hops. Flavor was sweet malts, grassy hop notes, some raw grain notes in there. Served pretty cold, so it was refreshing at the very least.

Bottle at home - 04/09/12. Chill haze on a pale golden pour with a bubbly white head that soon thinned. Sweet nose of malt, grain and cereals and a touch of grass. Pale malts at the fore of the taste, not as sweet as the nose but a certain level of sweetness present. Medium bodied and the correct level of carbonation for the style. Clear crisp finish.
