Brauhaus Riegele is one of Germany's oldest breweries, with origins traced to a brewery called 'Zum Goldenen Ross' founded in Augsburg in 1386. In 1884 Sebastian Riegele acquired the brewery, and the Riegele family grew the business substantially in the early twentieth century. Today the brewery is operated by the Priller family in the 28th generation of family ownership, producing a wide range of craft and traditional beers that have won prizes at the European Beer Star and World Beer Cup. Brauhaus Riegele has attracted international attention through collaborations such as an Oktoberfest beer with Sierra Nevada Brewing Company.

Their signature has to hold across very different styles — which makes the notes that do recur more telling, not less.

How they compare
Each beer measured against others of its own style, then averaged across the range. Compared with the wider catalogue across breweries making similar styles.

Across 5 beers in 4 style families, none of Brauhaus Riegele's characters carry through the whole range — the mix of styles they brew is the signature here.
