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.

Wird bei Zipfer produziert. Etwas runder als die helle Variante. Weniger herb im Antrunk. Leichte Röstmalznoten. Aber auch relativ neutral. Gut süffig. Es gibt nichts das stört, aber auch nichts, dass Begeisterungsstürme auslöst. Falsch macht man mit dem Kauf nichts.

Lovely unclear yellow pour with a fine head that leaves a fine lacing down the sides of the glass. Nice and inviting. Also a pleasant and fine aroma with a good intensity. Balanced sweetness and a fine carbonation level. Quite easy to drink. Wheat, fruity, yeast, some clove and banana in the flavor. [Bottle from Werkmeister]

Drunk from a can, and rated, while walking in the rain in Seefeld. Decent for a high volume beer. Grain, maltiness, decent bitterness but not much hop aroma.
