Duckstein

Germany · Regional · Known for Amber Ale
Known for Amber Ale

Duckstein is a beer brand of Carlsberg Deutschland, run through Duckstein GmbH in Hamburg. The brand invokes a historic beer from Königslutter am Elm in Lower Saxony, first called Luttersches Bier and later named after the tufa on which the town stands; a guild letter mentions it in 1640. The present brand dates from 1987 and has no brewery in Königslutter: its beers are brewed in Lübz in Mecklenburg. The range is small. At its centre is the Original, a red-blond, top-fermented beer made with crystal malt and matured on beechwood, joined by an unfiltered wheat beer and two seasonals, an amber Märzen and a winter beer.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
