Description
Since 1663 the brewing trade has remained in direct family hands. The fathers always passed the art of brewing beer on to their sons. And that's still the case today! All the Georgs, Johanns and Leonhards brewed their beer here in Pahres with fresh water from the same brewery's own well. In the past also with self-grown Aischgründer hops.

The Hofmann brewery has grown to its present size under the leadership of Georg Hofmann and delivers its beer within a radius of up to 60 km from the brewery chimney. Since 1990 responsibility has been in the hands of Georg Hofmann.

Sehr schöne golden-naturtrübe Farbe; kompakte, stabile Schaumkrone. In der Nase hellfruchtig, blumig, hefig, leicht malzig und frisch. Im Geschmack ausgewogen zwischen malzigen und dezent-fruchtig-hopfigen Aromen, leicht cremige Textur, trocken mit ganz leichter Süße, mittlere Kohlensäure, der Hopfen ist geschmacklich präsent, sorgt jedoch nur für eine moderate Bittere. Insgesamt sehr stimmig.

Bottle from Meibier. Grainy malt with notes of minerals, some hay, hint of caramel. Light sweet and bitter flavour. Bit Keller-like Lager, good stuff.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass deep golden, nice head. Starts mild, malty, modest dry. Shy sweetish-grainy hints. Mild bitterness. Finish well balanced. Okay.

Bottle picked up from Sedats Schlüggla Getrankemarkt, Schwaig bei Nürnberg on the way back home after Maifield Derby Music Festival yesterday. Had this Tuesday 3rd June 2025. Pours hazy gold with a large white head that swiftly departed. Soft mouthfeel, taste is quite rich, malty with a biscuit touch, light hoppiness, pleasant bittersweet edge. Good but not amazing.
