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.

bottle from Bierzwerg. Clear deep golden colour, mid-sized white head. Intensive malty nose. Full-bodied, intensively malty, robust, chewy malt flavours dominate, hints of caramel. Lovely aromatic hops complement the malty body, very slightly floral in character. Delicious, a really, really good beer!

Bottle, at Plan B. It’s a clear, golden beer with a nice, white head of finger-thick height. Malty, grainy aroma with a good grassyness. Malty and bitter flavor with grass, pine cones and some resin. Dry, medium-bodied. A fine bitterness finishes the whole thing. A refreshing and quenching beer. 110527
