Beer | alc | Description | Score (100) |
Dinkelacker CD-Pils | 4.9% (11.4º Plato) | Pils. Pepper and margarine aroma; bitterish/sweetish taste with butter aroma; bitter finish with wood and butter aromas. Way too buttery - it forces the hops right into the background. Totally unbalanced. |
38
|
Dinkelacker Privat | 5.1% (11.8º Plato) | Pils. |
|
Dinkelacker Diät-Pilsener | 4.5% (8.8º Plato) | Pils. |
|
Dinkelacker Märzen | 5.4% (13.2º Plato) | Pale lager. |
|
Dinkelacker Volksfestbier | 5.5% (12.7º Plato) | Pale lager. Seasonal - Sept/Oct. Pepper, grass and margarine aroma; bitterish/sweetish taste with pepper and butter aromas; bitterish finish with butter and spice aromas. Nice, though slightly subdued, hop character. A bit too much butter for my taste. |
51
|
Dinkelacker Weihnachts-festbier | 5.5% (12.4º Plato) | Pale lager. Seasonal - Christmas. |
|
Schwaben Bräu Das Echte Märzen | 5.5% (13.3º Plato) | Pale lager. Grass and metal aroma; bitter taste with vanilla, malt and hop aromas; very bitter finish with apple aroma. A slightly unsubtle bitter beer that isn't really the right style for a märzen. |
54
|
Schwaben Bräu Meister Pils | 4.9% (11.5º Plato) | Pils. Hop, pepper and flowers aromas; bitter taste with pepper and cream aromas; very bitter smoky, sourish finish. Not a bad pils. Good hop character and with a decent dose of bitterness. |
64
|
Schwaben Bräu Pilsner | 4.9% (11.2º Plato) | Pils. Pepper and cardboard aroma; bitterish with pepper and fruit aromas; bitterish, flowery finish. Unspectacular but drinakable pils. |
48
|
Schwaben Bräu Das Schwarze | 4.9% (11.5º Plato) | Black lager. Cherry, malt and burnt aroma; bitter taste with fruit and burnt aromas; bitter finish with chicory and coffee aromas. A rather nice schwarzbier with lots of black malt character. Some examplaes of the style - such as this one - can be intriguingly close to porter. |
70
|
Schwaben Bräu Das Helle | 5.0% (11.3º Plato) | Pale lager. |
|
Schwaben Bräu Original URTYP Export | 5.1% (12.2º Plato) | Pale lager. Pepper and mint aroma; neutral taste with mint and pepper aromas; sweetish/bitterish finish. Slightly thin and rather bland export. |
42
|
Schwaben Bräu Volksfestbier | 5.5% (12.7º Plato) | Pale lager. Seasonal - Sept/Oct. Spice and flowers aroma; bitterish/seetish taste with butter and pepper aromas; bitterish finish with butter and grass aromas. Similar to the Dinkelacker Volksfestbier but not as overwhelmingly buttery. |

Robert Leicht founded the Bier-Brauerei Robert Leicht in the Vaihinger Gaststäutte "Zum Ochsen" in 1878. Ten years later, Carl Dinkelacker started the Brauerei Dinkelacker in Tüubinger Straße. These are the two breweries which formed the basis of Dinkelacker - Schwaben Bräu.
Over the years both gobbled up other smaller breweries. There are still four distinct product ranges which originated at the different constituent breweries. I would be surprising if they continued to brew 21 beers long term.
Dinkelacker:1971 Stuttgarter Brauerei Wulle, founded in 1861.Schwaben Bräuu:
1977 Weißbierbrauerei Sanwald (which provided wheat beer brands)
1982 Hause Cluss (Heilbronn) which provided an unfiltered pils brand.
1982 Sigel Klosterbräuu from Metzingen.Schwaben Bräu and Dinkelacker set up a joint distribution centre in 1994 and formally merged in 1996. The Schwaben Bräu plant in Vaihingen has been demolished and is being redevelopped as a shopping centre and car park. The historic brewery tap "Zum Ochsen" did not feature in the developer's plans

Sophie's Hausbräuu | Pale unfiltered lager. Pepper, yeast, margarine and sulphur aroma; neutral taste with yeast aroma; lemony finish. Bit of hop and farty smell in the aroma, but too much yeast that overpowers everything. Just because it's unfiltered doesn't mean that it has to be so easy. |

Sophie's Schwarzbier | Unfiltered black lager. Bitter and yeast aroma; bitter taste with chicory and yeast aromas; very bitter finish with pepper aroma. Far too yeasty. Has an unsubtle amost sour bitterness ans almost no aroma. |
