MODERN CLASSIC is exactly what it claims to be! Brewed in collaboration with UK-based brewery Northern Monk, we took the traditional British DIPA-style and revamped the recipe to optimize impact. This contemporary brew flows through multiple stages of flavour: the smooth Maris Otter malt base gives hints of biscuit, complemented by fruity esters from London Fog yeast, a tropical Mosaic hops burst, and nice earthy undertones thanks to the UK Jester hops. Double the brewers, double the fun!

Had this at Reibersdorfer Hof sat in Frank (camper), forgot where I picked it up from. Consumed Saturday 8th March 2025, we did a long cycle ride from Gaststätte Zum Kruckenberger visiting Wörth an der Donau & Straubing. it's getting warmer but there's still a chill in the air. Pours hazy yellow with a mid sized white head. Lots of tropical fruit, juicy but warming and with a malty underbelly, it's a good beer.
