In 1923, this beer hall became noted as the location of the unsuccessful Beer Hall Putsch which Adolf Hitler led against the government of the German state of Bavaria, of which Munich was the state capital.

They use the same brewing techniques passed down from generation to generation and continue to use the traditional brewing method to ensure that each bottle of Lowenbrau beer is just as delicious as it was when it was first brewed. The lion emblem originates from a 17th-century fresco in the brewing house, depicting Daniel in the lions' den. When I started drinking, this is the first beer I drank with any regularity (I liked the colour of the can), and while not the cream of the crop, it's acted as an excellent benchmark for when I explore other beers.

I’ve had this in the past but it’s likely one of those beers I’ve waited to review until I’m in the country of its source. Around the turn of the century, Löwenbräu was the largest brewery in Germany, though strongly dependent on exports. Today, this German lager is a refreshing and mildly tart beer that provides a perfect foil summer barbecues. Nose is unfortunately quite skunky, but some light hops as well; and a light fragrant white bread note is also present. Most Löwenbräu beers are marketed as being brewed according to the Reinheitsgebot, the Bavarian beer purity regulation of 1516.

The novelty of drinking something German helped me delve into the craft scene so I'm thankful for it, would love to have some again even if on the whole its a sort of mediocre beer. Because only beers that are brewed in Munich are permitted to be sold at Oktoberfest, Löwenbräu is one of six breweries represented, along with Augustinerbräu, Hofbräuhaus, Hacker-Pschorr, Paulaner, and Spaten. Pours brilliantly clear gold with a beautiful sustaining white head; great initial lacing which slowly gets weaker but a thick film of white persists.Beers of Europe are active on a number of platforms, follow us everywhere on our social media channels, including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Tik Tok.
