When Georg Schneider reflects on his great-grandmother Mathilde, he cannot help but smile, reminiscing about receiving her kisses during his childhood.<\/p>\n

“She was affectionate but also strict,” he says with nostalgia. However, it is clear that the Schneider Weisse brand owes a great deal to her influential personality.<\/p>\n

The brewery, which today is headquartered in Kelheim, still maintains deep roots in Munich, where Georg Schneider proudly carries the legacy of being the sixth generation to lead the brewery.<\/p>\n

It is at the Weisses Br\u00e4uhaus, alongside his son, where they enjoy an Aventinus, marking the start of the strong beers<\/a> season.<\/p>\n
