Sieke u. Ole - Berliner Weisse

Like many of Flügge's beer creations, Sieke & Ole is a true beer specialty For its production, a sour beer in the style of a Berliner Weisse is taken and married with a wine The wine used is an orange from the Siegerrebe vine, which grows on the vineyard of winemaker Daniel Mattern and is pressed by him A Belgian seasonal yeast ferments the two basic ingredients and creates an extraordinary beer with a great character

Sieke & Ole is naturally cloudy The beer flows into the glass in the color of sun-dried straw and forms a small head, which is fed by lively, almost sparkling carbon dioxide A fresh scent of lime, orange peel and yeast mingles with tangy white grape on the nose The taste is initially sour, a palette of fruit follows the first impression Sieke & Ole is a fruity beer that is wonderfully refreshing

Although Sieke & Ole has passed its best-before date, you can still enjoy the beer Instead of going bad, the beer-wine hybrid actually gains in flavor and depth over time To be absolutely sure, we consulted brewer Jo and he confirmed its safety and retention of flavor and complexity There are countless beers that can be stored for years, beers that can be stored for years Barrel-aged beers, for example, are often several years old when consumed and specialty beers such as Old Django from Nikl are also designed to be left to mature at home
