Description
In the years 1891 and 1892, the Gütermann family built a brewery in Saalfeld that was modern from the perspective of the time. During the last days of the war the brewery was completely destroyed. But the brewery was quickly rebuild; from 1948 to 1991 the brewery was state-owned. At the time of the reunification of Germany in 1989, the brewery was in a technically completely outdated condition. In 1991 the brewery became a private company. After large investments the Bürgerliche Brauhaus Saalfeld became a modern brewery. A share of 23% is owned by Kulmbacher Brauerei AG.

Bottle: Amber coloured, rapidly vanishing loose white head; dried fruits, liquorice and an illusion of wine in the dark-malty nose; moderate to solid sweet-bitter flavour, medium to full bodied; illusions of fruit-cake in sweet dark-malty and slightly bitter finish. Quite well made Doppelbock.........

(33cl bottle) Clear, chestnut-brown colour with a beige medium-sized foamy head. Sweet and hearty toasted malty aroma with caramel, cacao and a shy leafy touch. Sweet flavour, medium to full bodied with a well-matured carbonation. Toasty malty and slightly ashy taste with lighter notes of caramel; sweet and slightly toasted malty finish with shy herbal accents. A drinkable, not too fat Doppelbock, but also not a world-shaking one (21.II.09).
