About this product

Würzburger Hofbräu Pilsner is a Franconian pilsner in a 0.5 l returnable glass bottle, with 4.9 % alcohol by volume and 11.5 % original gravity.[2] The label lists water, barley malt and hops and names Würzburger Hofbräu GmbH of Würzburg as the operator.[2] The brewery says the beer is brewed to the Bavarian Purity Law with its own well water, local barley malt and Hallertau aroma hops, at 42 kcal per 100 ml.[3] This label is printed in German and Italian and carries Italian recycling instructions.[2] A Fddb user recorded the same barcode for the beer in 2012.[4]

More about this product

The brewery was founded in 1643 by Prince-Bishop Johann Philipp von Schönborn. In January 2005 Kulmbacher Brauerei AG bought the von Finck family's 90.7 % stake, and in 2008 the company became a GmbH.[5]

Coverage & research gaps (9)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 2 / 3 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 2 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • German/Italian bottle label (front and back photographed): nutrient evidence: 2 / 2 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • Maker's product page (Biervielfalt: Pilsner): nutrient evidence: 8 / 8 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • ingredients · disputed: Two German drinks retailers list "Wasser, Gerstenmalz, Hopfen, Hopfenextrakt"; the 2023 label and the maker page list no hop extract. The retailer text may be an older recipe or stale data; hop extract is not added.
  • nutrition · disputed: Retailers print other per-100 ml figures (GetraenkeOnline: 172 kJ / 41 kcal, carbohydrate 3.2 g; getraenkedienst.com: carbohydrate 0.1 g); the maker's panel is used.
  • markets · unknown: REWE lists "Würzburger Hofbräu Pils 0,5l" (rewe.de/shop/p/wuerzburger-hofbraeu-pils-0-5l/7872844) but the page answered 403 to both server and direct fetches; not read, so not used as evidence.
  • identity · unknown: No source states a country of origin ("Product of …"); the label gives only the operator's address in Würzburg, Germany, so country_of_origin is left empty.
  • relationships · unknown: No public GS1 record names the licensee of prefix 4047900; gs1_prefix_owner is derived from the operator printed on the label.
  • evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
  • schema · schema_gap: Review and assign legacy facts to coherent observations.
  • ingredients · not_researched: Ingredient statement or sourced exemption not recorded.
  • nutrition · not_researched: Nutrition declaration or exemption not recorded.
