Description
Owned by Schloßbrauerei Kaltenberg since 2009, stopped brewing then. Brewery is closed, small range of Holzkirchner beers is brewed at owners brewery.

Das Brauhaus in Holzkirchen blickt auf eine lange Tradition zurück. So wissen wir, dass schon 1605 der Tegernseer Abt dem Holzkirchner Oberbräu das Braurecht verliehen hat. Das Holzkirchner Oberbräu ist mit seiner über 400-jährigen Brautradition tief verwurzelt im bayerischen Oberland. Genießer und Kenner schätzen dieses Brauhaus für seine altbayerische Braukunst. Die ausgereiften und rein gebrauten Bierspezialitäten stehen für die traditionelle Lebensart im bayerischen Oberland.

Bottled (from beerangel.de). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is sweet malts, some sugar, saltwater and hops. Mild glueish notes too. Flavour is hops, grass, some mealts as well as some dry wooden notes. Flavour is being quite pleasant compared to the aroma.

Bottle, poured into a a duvel glass. Transparent light golden color light white head with decent lacing. Aroma is boring..light grain, light hops. Flavor is light malt, watery, little to no bitterness. Moderate carbonation, but little else going on with the mouthfeel. Easy to drink but also very, very boring.

Bottle: A bit unclear, greenish-golden coloured, slowly diminishing white fluffy head; moderate grainy-hoppy (grassy) nose with faint traces of cardboard; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light bodied; shy, but also a bit lingering bitter-sweet finish. O.K., unspectacular.........

The bottle looks good, also the crown cap. The beer in the glass looks not so good, nearly no foam and no CO2. The beer is modest sourish, the finish is like wheat. An average beer.

The bottle looks really good, the beer in the glass also. Fine aroma. Tastes very hefeweizen-like - fruity and fresh, a little bit like banana. Finish a little bit dry. Good beer.

The bottle looks really good, the beer in the glass also, but there’s not much foam. The beer starts very fruity, like a normal hefeweizen, but turns then very washy. That’s not good and the beer is not really drinkable.
