Just discovered 5 bottles on clearance for $9. I do not have any experience with this producer and seldom drink gewurzt but seemed like an interesting opportunity.

The Austrian Hopler? If so, skip it.

I've never had the Gewurztraminer, but they make a pretty terrible Riesling. The Ausbruch can be good though.

Couldn't stand it so I spent $9 to see if you two guys were correct. Unfortunately you were. May have one more glass tonight before pouring down the drain. Hollow, thin, with gewurztraminer fruit that shows itself with medicinal flavors, drinkable but not enjoyable.
