Beer instead of wine? We pour it! On average, Austrians drink around 100 liters per person per year of the golden barley juice. Whether a classic lager or Märzen or a trendy pale ale ends up in the glass? True beer fans set clear priorities. It is clear to us that we prefer the holiday beer around the corner. That's why we have tasted our way through the range of both old hands and newcomers alike and put together a fine selection of Austrian beers for you.
They brew something for us: In addition to the classic stalwarts Kaltenhauser from Salzburg and Schwechater, you will find creative varieties from the Vienna Brewery MUTTERMILCH and beers with character from Bevog from Bad Radkersburg. By the way, they also score with their unusual designs.
Well then, cheers!
From Salzburg: Kaltenhausen Beer
The history of Salzburg's oldest brewery begins with the foundation laid by the Salzburg merchant Hans Elsenheimer. In Kaltenhausen, where the clearest spring water from the Barmstein rocks particularly favored the production and underground cold storage of beer, he established the so-called 'Kalte Bräuhaus' in 1475. A mixture of tradition and modernity, combined with the highest quality standards, makes the specialty manufactory of Hofbräu Kaltenhausen so special.
The Kaltenhausen Pale Ale is bright amber-colored and full-bodied. On the palate, it is intensely hoppy, with the aroma of tropical fruits and harmonious bitterness.
The Kaltenhausen Kellerbier is light gold, unfiltered, naturally cloudy, and particularly smooth and mild to drink. On the nose, it is finely hoppy and on the palate, easy to drink, with aromas of gently kilned grains.
From Lower Austria: Schwechater Bier
The invention of lager beer by Anton Dreher made the Schwechat Brewery, founded in 1632, world-famous. Even today, Schwechat beer specialties offer a precious piece of Viennese and Austrian tradition.
The Schwechater Zwickl is straw yellow, unfiltered with dense yeast cloudiness. It is distinctly finely aromatic hopped with a floral note. On the palate, it is creamy and soft. The carbon dioxide is particularly well-balanced in this cellar-fresh specialty. In the finish, it ends with a hop aroma.
The Vienna Lager is amber-colored with orange reflections, and the nose reveals fine hoppy notes underlined by slightly biscuit-like tones. In the taste, the subtle bitterness is supported by roasted, malty aromas.
