Description
The brewery is located in the picturesque village of Kötschach-Mauthen, Gailtal, Carinthia and derives its name from the old celtic name of Mauthen. Wonderful freshly brewed beer is celebrated here, with its own source, the best raw materials and a lot of love for the product. The brewhouse is modern and state of the art, the beer is traditionally fermented in the open fermentation tank. We are Gailtal's first brewery and have continued the craft that was practiced in Mauthen in 1700. Since opening in 2007, the brewery has been continuously expanded and the range expanded. Far from the mass products of the corporations, artisanal beer is produced here.

Clear copper colored, medium off white head, decent lasting. Aroma is caramel, malt, biscuit, tropical fruits and citrus. Taste caramel, malt, biscuit, some tropical fruits and citrus but not very strong aroma, low to moderate bitterness. Moderate- bodied, moderate carbonation. A bit too malt over hops and could/should be more bitter but the bottle is close to the best before date...

Draught at 6. Wiener Bierfest.
Brownish, cloudy body, with a big, creamy, lacing, beige head.
Aroma of dried fruits, ripe banana, vanilla, marzipan, some spices.
Tastes of banana, vanilla, dried fruits, spices, bread.
Full, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes spicy, sweet, fruity, bready.
Really nice. Very smooth and quaffable, with enjoyable, various sweet malt and fruit notes. Better than their regular Weizenbock in my opinion.

330 ml bottle from Beer Store Vienna.
Dark amber, hazy body, with a big, creamy, white head.
Very interesting, full aroma of bread, wheat, various ripe fruits, some vanilla, clove.
Taste isn’t as full and distinctive, with wheat, ripe banana, clove, some vanilla.
Medium to light, oily mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes quite light, with wheat, vanilla and fruits.
Nice one, but a bit ambivalent. The nose promises a lot and is really excellent and quite unique, while the taste and mouthfeel are a bit boring, too light. Could have been a great Weizenbock, if the taste resembled the nose, but all in all just decent.

Draft sample @ Berlin Braufest 2015. Cuivrée trouble, col crémeux beige. Arôme offre de bons esters allemands, pointe épicée de girofle, malt froment légèrement grillé qui ajoute une bonne complexité en rétro. Palais est épais venant du froment et malt Vienna, ester fruité, note de banane, pointe maltée rappelant le chewing-gum avec une petite note de réglisse.
