Description
When the young Viennese banker Franz Schaup started brewing beer in 1858, he did not expect his small brewery to develop into one of the most successful breweries in Austria over the years.
In the meantime, the Zipf brewery near the Attersee has a proud 13 beers and 3 types of hops, the refreshment with hop lemonade for adults, to their range. A total of 170 employees work directly at the location in Zipf. They are the ones who ensure that everything runs smoothly every day and are responsible for a large part of the success of the Zipfer brand.
Despite the numerous technical innovations and a merger with Brau Union Österreich AG in 1970, the careful use of resources and brewing with natural hops were always in the foreground.

(Bottle 50 cl) Comes as "Edelweiss Weissbier Dunkel". Unclear amber with a creamy, off-white head. Loads of fruity banana and citrus esters in both aroma and flavour and some sweetish, wheaty notes. Very delicate. 120106

Bottle ( comes as a "Glass heller Freude"): Pale golden, thin but stable white foam, sticking to the glass; sweetish grainy/malty nose with a tinge of grassy hops and dust; faint sweetish-malty flavour with a distinctive, but mild bitterness; slightly bitter finish with a tinge of citrus. Not overwhelming, but quite pleasant and refreshing....................

(Bottle 50 cl) Hazy, pale golden with a thick, creamy, white head. Pronounced yeast and fruit in the flavour. Very classical fruit-esters of banana in particular. Nice. 280705
