오스트리아의 비엔나를 구경하면서 비엔나에서 생산하는 맥주인 ottakringer 와 비엔나 커피(비엔나에서는 비엔나 커피 대신 멜랑쥐라고 부른다)를 마셨습니다. 이날 추워서 그냥 저는 맥주 대신 멜랑쥐를 마셨고, 신랑은 카페라떼였는데, 맥주를 좋아하시는 어머니께서 추위를 무릎쓰고 시키셨습니다. ^^;; 그냥 살짝 마셔봤는데 괜찮았어요. 더웠다면 쉬원하게 들이켜 마셨을텐데 아쉽네요.
비엔나 주변을 차타고 둘러봤을때, ottakringer 공장도 지나치면서 봤습니다. 여러 맥주집들이 보였지만 이 간판을 보고 아! 이 맥주가 비엔나 맥주이구나 생각했어요.

원래 병뚜껑을 모으기 때문에 병맥주를 구입하고 싶었지만 이날은 일요일이라 문을 연 마트를 찾지 못해 그냥 담배가게에서 캔맥주를 구입했다. 노란색이 무척이나 인상적인 맥주였다.
The Ottakringer Brewery was opened in 1837 by the master miller Heinrich Plank under the name of Planksche Brauerei, after the ruling diocese of Klosterneuburg had granted approval for brewing. In 1850, it was taken over and expanded into a large brewery by the cousins, Ignaz and Jakob Kuffner from Lundenburg. Within ten years, the production increased from 18,318 hl to 64,183 hl. When Kaiser Franz Joseph ordered that the city walls be pulled down and a large number of residential building began to be built, the Ottakringer Brewery grew as well. A new fermentation cellar and a larger warehouse went into operation. Around 1890, the production was already at about 170,000 hl. Moriz von Kuffner, the son of Ignaz von Kuffner, took over the brewery in 1882 and increased the production to over 350,000 hl in the last year before the war, a quantity which was not again reached between the World Wars. Before the First World War in 1905, Kuffner converted the brewery into a joint-stock company.
Even before the annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany, Moriz von Kuffner was forced to sell his business because of his Jewish background. It was sold for a rather low price of 14 million schillings (about 36 million euros at today's values) to Gustav Harmer, who was also forced out of the business for two years after the war. After the liberation by the Allies, the brewery was temporarily managed by the Russians, before the Harmer family managed to legally prove their purchase and again manufactured 150,000 hl as of 1955. The heirs of Moriz von Kuffner, who had died in Zurich in the meantime, were conpensated because of their explusion and the threats of the Nazi regime, which had lead to the sale of the business to the Harmer family.
In 1977, the brewery considerably contributed to the breaking up of the beer cartel by withdrawing from it. From that time on, any restaurant could choose whichever beer brewery it wanted as a supplier, independently of its location. In 1986, the Ottakringer Brewery was listed on the stock exchange. In 1989, bottling in the brown bottles usually used in Austria was stopped and Ottakringer Brewery was the first brewery in Austria to introduce the well-known green "shoulder bottles"
