The idea behind this unique collaboration was to brew a filtered, strong, top-fermented beer. This wonderful specialty is the combination of two brewing philosophies - this seems crystal-clear when you take a look at the raw materials: Hops from Belgium, from the immediate area around St. Bernardus, Weihenstephan yeast, Bavarian malt - and water from Freising. The beer is of course brewed in accordance with the Purity Law of 1516. Spicy, with a characteristic yeast note, fruity and strong with 6.5% alcohol: Braupakt 2024 flatters the palate with these characteristics.

330ml bottle from Das Alpenhaus. Crystal clear golden body, one finger fluffy white head. Musty, bready aroma, light notes of Belgian yeast. Taste brings together full, biscuity German maltiness and flowery Belgian yeast. Sourdough character. Creamy with some mild aftertaste.

Almost clear orange golden with a small creamy head. Belgian yeast, coriander, orange zest, clove, banana, dry hops, resin. Hoppy zesty bitterness, fruity sweetness. Medium bodied, oily texture, soft to lively carbonated, dry zesty hoppy bittersweet finish. What a nice Belgian Pale Ale!

Bottle at home. Pours almost completely clear golden with a nice white head. Aroma is phenolic, nicely, and weirdly spicy, not quite nicely. Taste is coriander, phenolic and estery yeast character, light sugary touch, pretty okay, except for the slippery-soapy mouthfeel in the finish. Light bodied with averageto high carbonation.

Аромат правда блонда, прям Бельгийский шлейф, сладость небольшая, груша, пшеница, кориандр. Цвет темно золотой, почти пены не было. Вкус умеренный, радует что хмеля не тонна, снова сладость от пшеницы, снова груша с кориандром, солода много. Алкоголь заметен но мимолетно, по Бельгийски очень благородно.

Sweetish, estery and yeasty with some ripeish fruits, spices, floral notes, earthiness and hints of banana.

Draft @ Bar Bernard in a Braupakt tulip glass. Pours a slightly misty blonde with a large white head. Wonderfully aromatic blonde nose. Super soft mouthfeel, harmonious Weiss character with a brilliant subtlety of flavours.. some hoppy citrus perhaps but less hoppy than the Sierra Nevada Braupakt back in 2018. Lovely.
