Hasseröder Brauerei
Robert Hoppe founded the brewery in 1872 as 'Zum Auerhahn' in Hasserode, today a district of Wernigerode on the northern edge of the Harz; the capercaillie still marks the brand. Ernst Schreyer took over in 1882, and from 1920 the company traded as Hasseröder Brauerei AG. In GDR times the beer was drunk mainly around Magdeburg, and after 1990 it became the most widely consumed beer brand in eastern Germany. The brewery belongs to AB InBev and brews with water drawn from the Harz.

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.
