One of the original six Munich breweries, Hacker Pschorr’s history dates back to 1417. The original site of the brewery is home to the Altes Hackerhaus restaurant where you can sample the brewery’s wares. Fun fact: Oktoberfest or Marzen style beers are stronger than traditional Munich Helles lagers, because there used to be a ban on brewing during the summer months. The boiling part of the brewing process was deemed a fire hazard, so breweries had to brew enough beer in March (März) to last throughout the summer. For the beers to last into early Autumn, they were made stronger – hence the birth of the style! Hacker Pschorr Oktoberfest Marzen is considered to be one of the best Oktoberfest beers. Pouring a pale amber colour, Hacker Pschorr Oktoberfest Marzen offers up a rich bouquet of malt aromas. The first sip reveals caramel sweetness, balanced by a slight bitterness from the fresh, grassy hops.

A true classic of quintessential Munich and Bavarian food and drinks. Clear and sparkling bright golden in the glass, crowned by a pure white head, it is usually drunk in the shade of a chestnut tree according to tradition. A beer which always goes down well: mild, elegant malts with a hint of sweetness and a soft hint of hops in the background. This is pure Bavarian life style!

Paulaner Munich Dunkel is an easy drinking, Dark Munich lager with a malty, chocolaty flavour. Original Münchner Dunkel is actually the “original” Munich beer. Although light beer overtook dark in popularity stakes at the end of the 19th century, the traditional, strong flavor of Original Münchner Dunkel is once again enjoying an upward trend. Its dark golden color and wonderfully full flavor are the results of the traditional bottom-fermented brewing process using dark quality barley malt.
