Grodziskie or Grätzer is a Sour Smoked Wheat Ale that was brewed in the 1900s in East Prussia and dates back to as early as the 15th century. It was named after the Polish town of Grodzisk Wielkopolski or Grätz in German. Our historic version is brewed according to the German Purity Law with air-dried barley malt and beech smoked wheat malt and hopped with Perle and Saaz. A sour mash is created using the old and forgotten technique called “Digerieren.” Finally a three month aging and maturation process creates a complex sour, smoky and heavily hopped wheat ale.

500 ml bottle shared by Willrunforbeer, orange color, no head. Very light aroma of smoked malt, sour mash, and weak damp ash.
Flavor is pretty much the same as the aroma with the smoke being very faint and subdued which is pleasing to me. Mild sourness seems to hold the smoke at bay. Malted wheat with a light tart fruit character. Medium body with a dry texture and clean.

Poured from bottle golden color with a white head. Aroma is mildly smoky with a little funkiness and wheat. Taste is somewhat smoky and is balanced by the sourness.

A hazed golden Gratzer with a thin white head. In aroma, lemony malt with lactic acid notes, light funky side, nice. In mouth, a sour beer with light fruity notes and bacon smokiness, lactic acid, interesting. On tap at Bad Apple, Chicago.

Bottle courtesy of ericdevin. Fruity wheat malt and strong clove aroma. Cloudy dark straw gold with a large white head. Light smoky malt, and tart fruity flavor with just the slightest hint of hops in the finish. LIght body, moderate carbonation. Very minimally smoky flavored, light, and easy drinking.

Refrigerated 0.5 L brown bottle poured into a english pint glass. Pours hazy deep golden with one finger white head. Aroma is slight smoke, medium body, low carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is tart and some light smoke. Interesting, but not something I would go out of my way to have again.
