Mostheuriger Familie Bitter

The Mostheuriger of the Bitter family at Panoramastraße 17 in Berging near Schönbühel an der Donau is a Top-Heuriger that mainly serves Schmankerl from its own organic Angus cattle. It is open (in season) on individual dates, each time from Thursday to Sunday from 15:00, and the family also sells fresh meat and provides catering.

Brettljause and Speckbirnenmost

At the Heuriger there are Brettljausen, cider and perry such as the Speckbirnenmost, and home-made cakes. Inside there is room for around 60 guests, and tables can be booked online. The Heuriger is run by Beatrix Bitter, who also processes the meat. Much of it comes from producers nearby:

• Apricot nectar: from the König and Kienesberger families in the Wachau
• Cheese and milk: hard cheese, sheep's cheese, dairy products from farms in the area
• Also: bread from the Schwinn bakery, eggs and pumpkin seed oil from the region

Wachaubeef from the family farm

The Angus suckler herd grazes the meadows in Berging, and the calves stay with their mothers for at least nine months. After that, small herds graze pastures in the area, looking after floodplain areas such as the Neubacher Ofenloch as they do so. After at least 27 months outdoors, the animals are slaughtered at a nearby abattoir. The herd is looked after by Herbert Bitter and Herbert Bitter junior.

• Steaks: T-bone, tomahawk, rib-eye, rump steak, sirloin and flank steak
• For grill and smoker: short ribs and brisket
• Frozen: burger patties
• Collection: on announced fresh-meat dates after pre-ordering

Catering from five people

For birthdays, weddings or company parties the family delivers finger food, Jause platters and dishes in jars, made from pork and organic Angus beef. A Jause platter with roast meat, smoked pork, Angus sausage and cured ham costs 8.90 euros per person.
