Mahrs Bräu
Family brewery in Bamberg's Wunderburg quarter, documented since 1670, with a brewhouse on the site mentioned as early as 1602. The present name goes back to Karl Mahr, who bought the property in 1840, and the Michel family has owned it since 1895, now in the fourth generation. The listed brick brewhouse dates from 1908, and the tavern with its beer garden shares the address. A 2017 relaunch brought retro bottles with no body label and embossed crowns. In the US, a subsidiary in Malibu, California, has the core beers brewed under contract.

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.
Mahrs Weisser Bock
Their beers place in the Top 9% of the catalogue on average, across 7 ranked beers. Consistent rather than spiky — no single standout carrying the rest.
