Freigeist was founded in 2009 with a mission to revive Germany's lost regional, artisanal ales. We now offer bold American-influence, American-brewed twists on our homeland's most popular beer styles. Maltier than Pils and hopper than Helles. Exportbiers were the industrial city of Dortmund Freigeist modern-day Dortmund export expands on this tradition with more complex malt variety and extra bitterness.

Tap at Protokoll, huge thanks Timo! Clear golden body, white head. Malty aroma, saliva, bit herbal, doughy. Soft malty taste, lightly herbal, pleasant balance. Bit dry in the finish.

On tap at Shelter pours a clear gold with a ton of soapy head. Looks amazing. Nose has malt and honey and soap. It smells a little off. Industrial. Flavor is a little better, malt and flowers and dough. Overly yeasty. Almost some Brett lurking. Dry, spicy finish.

Clear yellow colour with thin head. This is a particularly clean and pure beer. Pale malt sweetness. Soft mouthfeel with fine carbonation. Light bitterness in the finish.

16 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a cloudy gold color with a large white head and great retention. Good lacing too. Slightly yeasty and malt aroma. The flavor is very bready, but not yeasty, with a clean bready finish. Very smooth, soft mouthfeel. Very little bitterness. Medium body. A really good, solid beer.
