Ritterbräu
Ritterbräu sits in Neumarkt im Hausruckkreis in Upper Austria and traces its roots back to 1609, when the burgher family Schließlberger founded the brand with the knight in its coat of arms; that year the Mitterbräu first appears in writing. Since 1 May 2012 the brewery has belonged to Severin Quelle Mineralbrunnen from Osterhofen in Bavaria, run by Bettina and Johann Baumgartner. Beers follow the purity law of 1516; the range also includes Ritter lemonades and wine mixes.

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.
