This picture of me grandmother
Anna Donner painted Oskar Kokoschka in the bar room of the lounge "Oberhaus"
in Lassing in summer 1900, where, at that time, this dark beer still was served.
Today, te painting is in the possession of the museum of the city of Vienna,
but today you still can brew yourself this beer according to this traditional
family recipe, too.
