Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Austria Beer Price Increase February 1st
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

Bad news for beer drinkers during winter sports: prices for beer will probably rise again soon in Austria, at least for the Brau Union brands

Brau Union increases its prices for retailers and the catering industry by an average of 3.6 percent.

Only Brau Union increased

This increase does not apply to all beer, but only to brands owned by Brau Union:

Gosser
Zipfer
Kaiser
Pointgamer
Schwechater
Wieselburger
Schladminger
Edelweiss
Villacher

Expect others to follow

What’s wrong with Edelweiss - why doesn’t it get an”er” like all the others ?

Already seen increases last year following the threat of strike action over pay by the brewery workers.

Fortunately, the larger supermarket chains routinely discount the main/premium beer brands. Half litre bottles typically under 0.70E a bottle, so not exactly expensive.

Bar prices (at least, around here) will probably rise to just above 5,00E for half a litre, both on and off the mountains.

What I have noticed this year in both Fiss and Arlberg was a lot of places only selling small beers but at 0.5l prices.

Edelweiss is wheat beer/White beer (hence weiss). Hefetrub is a lovely sip.

@sev112, I suspect that the "er" on the end is a genitive of some sort ie the beer from Villach or the Kaiser's beer whereas Edelweiss means precious or high quality white /wheat. There is a slightly higher strength Augustiner called Edelstoff which roughly translated means precious stuff Smile

I’m a lightweight these days, two big Schladminger lagers my max. So little financial effect for me.
