Description
In 1861 the 25-years old Heinrich Schneider decided to found a brewery on the “Grün’schen Hof” in Hachenburg. The Hachenburger brewery soon became the most important family brewery within the region. With business leader and co-owner Jens Geimer the family-owned company has reached the fifth generation and is still entirely independent.
Key to the success is that the beer is consistently cooled, the precious beer has achieved its special aroma over and over again for 150 years. What was true then is still true today: the long and cold ageing process is a fundamental requirement for a real Hachenburger as well as the use of high-grade raw materials. As well as the natural spring water from the Rothbach valley

0,5 l bottle. Golden summer label artwork. Pours hazy golden in the glass, mighty foamy head. Banana, caramell and yeast in the nose. Stars with herb banana, followed by a short hint of citrus. Caramell with dry chewing gum, light vanilla, not too sweet. Thinner to the end but a good one.

0,33 l swing top bottle. Cloudy, nearly orange in the glass. Big head. Starts thin, then malty, light sweetness, hints of honey. A little bit spicy but all in all a smooth beer. Easy to drink, nothing special.

Dark amber colour, very cloudy. Malty and slightly sweet aroma. The beer starts malty, a bit neutral. Slightly smooth due to the yeast. The mainpart is malty, slightly sweet, slightly hoppy, but ok. Aftertaste is medium to long, Malty, hoppy and not too sweet. Nice beer, but nothing special!! --> 9/12/8/9
