Altenmünster is a German beer brand rooted in the Ostallgäu region of Bavaria, centred around Marktoberdorf, the highest-situated district capital in Germany. The brand has a long history tied to traditional Bavarian brewing, with references to a brewery dating back nearly 600 years. In 2003, the Altenmünster beer range was taken over by Allgäuer Brauhaus AG, which is part of the larger Radeberger Group, one of Germany's most significant brewing conglomerates. The beers are sold nationwide in Germany, often recognisable by their distinctive flip-top bottles. Altenmünster's portfolio reflects classic Bavarian and Franconian brewing traditions. The range includes a variety of styles, such as the golden Lager Hell (Helles), the full-bodied Urig Würzig (a characterful amber lager), a seasonal Maibock, a Winterbier Doppelbock with a rich malt character at 7.2% ABV, and a Brauerbier. These beers draw on Ostallgäu brewing heritage and are known for their robust malt profiles and adherence to German brewing traditions. The Altenmünster brand also appears in Franconian specialties distributed under the Radeberger Group umbrella. Among the best-known expressions, the Urig Würzig is brewed according to a recipe associated with a nearly 600-year-old brewing tradition, offering a gold-coloured, well-balanced character. The Doppelbock Winterbier is a seasonal highlight appreciated by dark beer enthusiasts, while the Lager Hell provides an approachable everyday option in classic Bavarian style.
