Tap to rate

Fine malt aroma and a full body: Steiner Export is brewed bottom-fermented with a little extra original gravity and shows a rich golden colour. 5.3% ABV, 20 IBU. It comes from the castle brewery in Stein an der Traun, where a charter of 1489 first records a brewhouse on the castle grounds and where the beers rest for four to six weeks in a cellar cut into the rock beneath the high castle.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Steiner Export

◎ Appearance

Steiner Export presents a rich golden hue with excellent clarity and bright light transmission. The head forms with modest density and displays good adhesion to the glass, gradually diminishing to a thin collar. Carbonation appears moderate and well-integrated, creating a fine bead structure that sustains throughout the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with a clean, inviting malt character—toasted grain and a subtle breadiness dominate the initial impression. Noble hop varieties contribute gentle herbal and spicy undertones without aggressive aromatic thrust. Overall freshness and lack of yeast-driven esters suggest a disciplined fermentation and proper aging in cool cellars.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and full-bodied, with pronounced malt sweetness that fills the palate without cloying. The mid-palate maintains this malty foundation while low bitterness (20 IBU) remains restrained and complementary rather than challenging. The body feels substantial yet smooth, with a clean fermentation profile that keeps the beer refreshing despite its richness.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium in length, trailing malt and a gentle herbal note without sharp edges or astringency. A pleasant dryness emerges as the aftertaste fades, leaving the palate clean and ready for the next sip.
