More information about Schoppe Bräu Wintermärchen
The Berlin winter is not exactly known for its picturesque idyll. Rather, one associates the cold season in the capital rather with always gray skies, slush on the roadside and rain without end. Berlin is beautiful in summer, but rather bleak in winter. Schoppe Bräu has taken on the task of saving wintry Berlin and created a beer that breathes a good dose of winter magic into the city.
Wintermärchen is a creamy wheat bock that stands out from Bavarian wheat beer with bold caramel notes and wintry festivity. At 8.0% alcohol, the pale Weizenbock manages to provide a bit of warmth even on the coldest winter days.
The fragrant beer flows into the glass in dark amber and tops off with a fair amount of airy, lightly tinted foam. A malty bouquet pleases the olfactory nerves and is also reflected in the initial drink: the usual wheat beer notes are joined by a good range of caramel malt notes, plus a hint of roasted grain pleases the tongue. Wintermärchen is fruity, bitter, delicately sweet, powerfully malty and wonderfully smooth.
Whether you live in Berlin or not, this fine Weizenbock will sweeten the cold season for you!

Schoppe brew
Fancy names have become part of the standard ABC of the modern craft beer brewer. And hey, it's legitimate to have your illustrious range represented by a unique name. The small Schoppe brewery from Berlin, however, shows that it's possible to be fancy and still get by without big Anglicisms and extravagant neologisms. Real beer instead of mass-produced goods Behind the simple name lies a true avant-gardist: Thorsten Schoppe caused a sensation in the beer world years ago and virtually helped lift the craft beer movement out of its cradle. At some point, the inspired brewer had had enough of large-scale brewing and turned to his craft roots and the original art of brewing. Kettle instead of computer was the motto that ultimately led to Thorsten starting his own thing. Since then, the humorous motto "hops, malt, and muscle grease" has applied, perfectly describing the small-scale...
