About

Stiegl's Pausenbrot is an Austrian take on the Belgian Saison style. This amber-hued beer is top-fermented and delivers a spicy, resinous character. At 6.5% ABV, it carries more body than many classic Saisons, yet remains approachable and refreshing. The name 'Pausenbrot' – literally 'break bread' – nods to a workman's beer built for sustenance. Stiegl brews this beer using traditional methods: water, malt, hops and yeast only. The result is dry and crisp, with a balanced bitterness that lingers without overwhelming.
