Description
The brewing industry in Grünbach has been documented since the early 18th century with the brewing law of 1723. After an eventful history, Herman Noll took over the brewery under the name of Schloßbrauerei Grünbach. In 1990 son Alexander took over the brewery in the third generation. After the year 2000 Alexander Noll started to look for a partner in order to be able to cope with the challenges of the beer market and also recognize the potential of the brewery in order to be able to continue investing in brand revitalization and expansion together. In 2013 this partner was found in the Arco-Bräu in Moos.

February 2015: 500 ml bottle, as Grünbacher Altweisse Dunkel, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 5.3%. Hazy brown colour, pours fizzy with a large to moderate off-white head. Pleasant wheaty aroma with notes of cloves, citrus, banana and brown bread. Fairly light bodied, wheaty and citrussy flavour, hints of cloves, banana and brown bread again. Low bitterness, as typical for the style. A nice refreshment - even people who normally prefer the paler hefeweizens should not be scared stiff by this one.

November 2015: 500 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 5.7%. Cloudy brownish-yellow colour, large white head. Slightly darker than your typical hefeweizen, but not nearly as dark as a dunkelweizen. Typical hefeweizen aroma of cloves and banana, also citrus. Cloves, banana and citrus in the slightly sweet flavour too. Except for the slightly darker colour and slightly higher ABV, there is nothing particularly "wintery" about this beer - it is a more than decent hefeweizen, worthy to drink at any time of the year.

Bottle from Rewe. Deep brown-orange with a thick, medium head. Toasty caramel and wheat biscuit nose, banana, clove, touch of cinnamon and chocolate. Sweet, fruity, a bit boozy flavor. Nice cloves and spices. Estery, some banana, rather bitter finish. Not too heavy. Nice.

Big thank you to Erzengel for this 0,5 l bottle. BB 13.09.24. Murky dark golden in the glass, stable nearly two finger foamy white head. Intensive banana and chewing gum on the nose. Taste strats also with banana, increasing yeast, little bit dry, pale malt in the second part. Soft bitterness. Above average carbonated. Nice one.

Great creamy banana clove head. The beer starts mild and soft. Creamy caramel, banana. Fruity mild, easy to drink with a fantastic mild back. No bitterness, creamy clove, fantastic mild deep clove spiced finish. Nice.
