Collection: Stiegl Alpine Lager

Stiegl has been brewing in Salzburg since 1492, making it one of Europe's oldest independent breweries. Alpine Lager reflects everything the brewery does well: clean malt, gentle bitterness and remarkable drinkability. Sometimes the hardest beers to brew are the ones that appear the simplest.

Stiegl is one of Austria’s oldest and most iconic breweries, producing traditional lager and classic European beer styles in Salzburg since 1492. Deeply connected to Austrian brewing culture, the brewery has built an international reputation for exceptionally clean, balanced and refreshing beer rooted in traditional brewing methods, high-quality ingredients and Alpine freshness.

Best known for its crisp lager and Helles-style beers, Stiegl combines soft malt character, gentle bitterness and refined carbonation into beers designed for drinkability and balance rather than extreme flavour intensity. The brewery uses Alpine spring water sourced from the Untersberg mountain alongside carefully selected hops and malt, helping create the smooth, refreshing profile associated with classic Austrian lager.

Our Stiegl collection focuses on the brewery’s most recognisable and easy-drinking beers, including crisp lager, radler and seasonal Austrian styles. Expect clean malt character, subtle floral hops, light biscuit notes and refreshing finishes that work brilliantly alongside food or relaxed everyday drinking.

Whether you're exploring traditional European lager, looking for fresh Alpine-style beer or simply after one of the most reliable classic continental breweries, Stiegl remains a benchmark for balanced and highly drinkable Austrian beer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Stiegl Brewery?

Stiegl is an independent Austrian brewery based in Salzburg, founded in 1492. It is Austria’s largest privately owned brewery and is known for traditional lager, unfiltered beer and Alpine brewing styles.

What style is Stiegl Alpine Lager?

Stiegl Alpine Lager is a crisp, refreshing pale lager brewed in an Austrian style with balanced malt, gentle bitterness and light herbal hop character. The beer focuses on drinkability and freshness rather than intense hop flavour or heaviness.

What makes Austrian lager different?

Austrian lager often sits stylistically between German pilsner and Helles, combining crisp bitterness with slightly fuller malt texture and softer carbonation. Alpine brewing traditions also tend to emphasise balance, clean fermentation and high-quality water sources.
