About
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.

Flasche(ergattert von MoritzF in Pahres!!!):Deep, deep golden coloured, a bit hazy, small and stable off-white head, bisquity-fruity nose, supported by a delicate spicy-hoppy backbone; medium bodied and soft, light to moderate sweet-bitter flavour; gently increasing lemony hoppimess towards the sweet-caramelly finish.Reasonable franconian quality, hard to find elsewhere in bad old Germany…

0.5l bottle. Slightly hazy golden body, white head. Bready aroma, with floral hops and honey. Noticeable floral and even citrusy hop flavor with bread and honey. Not too bitter, but it’s more on the hoppy side. Very nice beer.

0.33l bottle. Clear golden body, white head. Aroma of caramel, peach, caramel and booze. Taste has more caramel than the aroma suggests. It also has some bread, booze (not harsh though) and grassy hops. The alcohol is warming. Nice one.

(bottle, 33cl) Cloudy, yellow colour with a blond diminishing frothy head. Fruity nose with notes of citrus, grapefruit, delicately malty background with a whiff of grassy hops. Moderately sweet flavour, light bodied with a tame carbonation. Pronounced citric taste, slightly ascorbic with notes of grapefruit on a shy malt-character; sweet and slightly tart finish, getting also quite sticky due to the lack of carbon. 04.XI.13

(bottle, purchased at the brewery shop) Hazy, deep golden to light-amber colour with a medium-sized and slightly off-white foamy head. Mildly bready caramel-malty aroma with notes of herbal and delicately citric hops. Moderately sweet and slightly bitter flavour, almost medium bodied with a well-carbonated mouthfeel. Slightly biscuity cara-malty taste with herbal and delicately fruity hops; moderately sweet and slightly bitter finish with rounded cara-malty and herbal hoppy counterparts. A decent example of the style. 31.X.13

Dobry weizen bock. Piekna puszysta piana i trwala, znacznie przekracza obrzeza szklanki. Piwo koloru pomaranczowego z cudownym zapachem pomaranczy i zwlaszcza bananow. W smaku chlebowa nuta z drozdowym smakiem, starawy posmak drewna takze wyczuwalne w tym piwie jest dosc mocno.
