Description
History: Giesinger started as a garage brewery in Munich-Birkenau in 2006. In 2007, 300 hectoliters of beer were produced and sold in Birkenau. In 2009 we already produced an impressive 750 hectoliters of beer in our small backyard brewery. When we finally reached the magic limit of 1,000 hectoliters for the first time in 2011, the premises in Birkenau were completely exhausted. A new location was needed and found in the neighbourhood of Munich-Giesing. The new brewery opened in 2012 and continued to grow, therefore a second facility was opened in 2018.

Suddenly "big" entrepreneur: Today we have 20 fermentation and storage tanks in our brewery. Giesinger became Munich's second largest private brewery almost overnight: With our current brewing plant, we can produce up to 12,000 hectoliters of beer per year, and after the opening of the second brewery even more.

Bottle. Spicy nose, the rosmarin is definetely there. Milky orange, huge frothy head. Fruity (banana,oranges) and bready wheat base, the ginger shines through, rosmarin in the background and retronasal, a note resembling chamomile, which must be the damiana (thanks wikipedia). All very nicely blendend together- another great spicy wheatbock from the Bierlaboratorium - great job guys!

Bügelverschlußflasche (traded with joss !): Golden, a bit orangey coloured, cloudy with a foam like beaten egg-white, sweet-malty, a bit fruity-yeasty nose with a distinctive aromatic hoppiness; quite sweet, only faint bitter flavour, creamy MF; yeasty-hoppy, quite sweet finish. Pleasant, but not too spicy..........

Bottle. Fairly spicy nose - the star-anis is clearly there among bready and bananalike notes. Cloudy yellow, champagne-sparkling carbonation, huge stable off-white head. Bready base, banana a bit clove - the star-anis complements all this very well and a fresh spritzer Elderberry of gives it the last fresh aroma in the back of the mouth which really rounds the wheat beer off. Medium body, sparkly mouthfeel. Excellent combination of spices, a big thumbs up to the bold brewers of Bierlaboratorium for brewing this in the heart of "Reinheitsgebot"-land. I am looking forward to try the other Tierkreiselexier spice combinations.

Bottle. Light honeyish, and fruity (mango) aroma overlaid by fresh aromatic hops.Cloudy orange, big fluffy off-white head. Fruity base (apples, magos, banana) citric hop balance, a hint of smoke in the back of the throat. Medium body, light sparkly on the palate. Nice with a really fresh beer.
