Description
The Prince-Bishops of Fulda founded their own brewery in Motten over 500 years ago. The brewery only came into private hands in 1791, as a kind of privatization. Local farmer Johann Georg Will bought the brewery for an impressive 6,000 guilders and a success story began. In 1987 the brewery was taken over by the Hochstiftliche Brauhaus Fulda.

The Hochstiftliche Brauhaus in Bavaria can look back on a proud history of over 200 years. As a regional family brewery, we are firmly rooted in the region with its history and tradition. According to the motto "from the region - for the region" we face up to our corporate responsibility towards home. Because in a family-run company, decisions are made in the long term and with a view to future generations, without only having in mind the quick, short-term success.

Bottle: Clear, lively carbonation, persistent whither than white head; delicate orangey and citrousy nose with a sweetish wheaty touch; mild sweetish flavour, soft MF; faint sweetish-fruity, a bit sourish finish. Nothing unpleasant detectable, but all in all just another boring Kristallweizen......

Bottled. A yellow beer with a white head. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet and malty - clean, but not exciting.
