Konig Ludwig is an imported Bavarian weiss beer from the Kaltenberg brewery (Schlossbrauerei), near Munich, which is owned and run by Prince Luitpold. 
The Bavarian Royal Family has run the brewery for almost 700 years and they were instrumental in establishing the German Purity Law of 1516.
They held the monopoly for Weiss Beer in Europe until the early 18th Century and in the 19th Century, King Ludwig I of Bavaria founded the Ocktoberfest to celebrate his Birthday and then went on to develop the concept of the Beer Garden.
Prince Luitpold is the great grandson of the last king of Bavaria, Ludwig III and he still oversees the brewing at both of the breweries in Bavaria. He claims to have the only Royal Residence in the World to contain a working commercial Brewery.
Tasting Notes
König Ludwig is golden in colour and has a naturally cloudy appearance derived from the special Bavarian Brewers yeast. It has a nice balanced flavour, with malty overtones and an aroma reminiscent of apples and bananas. The stimulating fruity experiences leave you with an unmistakably fruity tingle in the mouth.
