More information about Maisel & Friends Stefan's Indian Ale
What do you get when you let a wine sommelier have a go at the beer kettle? Something good, let me tell you that much!
Wine sommelier Stefan Sattran is a friend of the brewers at Maisel & Friends and understands the fine art of wine. With his Indian Ale, he proves that he also knows a lot about beer. In cooperation with Maisel & Friends, he has composed a beer that delights with fresh fruitiness, elegant bitterness and playful floral notes. With its tart fruit, infinite lightness and fine citrus notes, his work is reminiscent of the light-footed aromas of a good wine and comes across as wonderfully balanced. The Indian Ale is neither a hop bomb nor a fruit bomb, but a well-balanced blend of hop and malt notes.
Upon opening the bottle, the amber beer exudes a delicious aroma of creamy orange ice cream, delicately toasted nuts, oven-fresh bread, spicy yeast and elegant citrus. All the aromas already heard on the nose are also present on the tongue and combine beautifully. Bitter notes, fruitiness and caramel sweetness, as well as cereal malt notes sit well on the tongue with a subtle tartness and 7.3% alcohol content. Stefan's Indian Ale is an excellently balanced blend and delights with equal parts hops and malt.
An extraordinary debut for wine sommelier Stefan Sattran and hopefully not his last collaboration with Maisel & Friends!
