Broyhan - Weizenbier

For decades, the craft beer scene has been about creating new types of beer and exploring uncharted territory, but nowadays crafty brewers are increasingly looking to the past for inspiration Ancient, long-forgotten styles are being unearthed and brought into the present with care and dedication While some breweries stay as close as possible to the original by using old grain and hop varieties and traditional techniques, others dare to create modern reinterpretations

One of these old classics that has been given a contemporary twist comes from Freigeist Bierkultur The Sauerland brewers have chosen a cult beer from Hanover: Broyhan was developed by local master brewer Cord Broyhan in the 16th century and traditionally brewed with pale malt and little or no hops Choosing this historic brew in a time of hop surplus is a sign of courage, and the team at Freigeist Bierkultur has more than enough of it

Your Broyhan comes with a gentle 4.7% alcohol content and flows into the glass in a delicately cloudy old gold The aroma of tart green apples fills the air and makes you curious about the first sip The first sip reveals a tangy body that combines the fresh fruit acidity of white grapes with mild sweetness, soft malt, citrus notes and spicy yeast An extremely atypical beer that you should definitely try!
