Astra Urtyp
Finely spicy and mild at 4.9% ABV: Astra Urtyp is the brand's original from 1909. The brewery calls it a cool Hamburger with heart. Hamburg is also where the Bavaria-St. Pauli brewery stood until it closed in 2003, and the Astra St. Pauli Brauerei at Nobistor 16 now pours Astra on the Kiez again.
