Bamberg used to be one of the largest hop trading centers in Germany, and Bohemian hops were considered particularly high-quality in Graser’s day. In this pale lager, Bohemian aroma hops provide a distinct hoppy note. We also use special water for brewing, which is softened before the brewing process. The result is a smooth lager with a pleasant bitterness, a round and mellow aroma, and an almost creamy mouthfeel.

Konrad Graser was the father of the original Schlenkerla, Andreas Graser. Before Konrad Graser took over Hellerbräu, which remains in his family’s possession to this day, he worked for several decades as a brewer at the Michaelsberg Brewery. The monks at the Benedictine monastery, founded in 1008, have been brewing since at least 1122. Konrad left behind extensive handwritten records of his recipes, which his descendants use today to revive Bamberg’s oldest brewing tradition: GRASER beers. All GRASER beers are brewed WITHOUT smoked malt.
