Description
Birbant is one of the pioneers of Polish craft brewing - bold, independent, and driven by creativity. We don’t follow the noise - we brew what truly matters.

Birbant (pronounced ‘beer-bunt’; Polish for ‘bon vivant’) contract brewery was established in 2013 by Jarek and Krzysiek (a.k.a. Kuli), two brewers and beer enthusiasts. Jarek is a professional brewer, who’s worked with several different breweries, while Kuli started brewing at home in 2003 and in the ten years before Birbant many of his home batches earned him awards at homebrew competitions. In their own words: “We have worked together on new recipes for a few years now. Our goal is to make flavorful and exceptionally aromatic beers we would like to drink ourselves.”

Browar Zarzecze

Keg at CBC Clerkenwell - London. Pours unclear gold with a creamy white head. Strange aroma, some overripe citrus fruits, a little poo. Light sweet flavor with a little lemony tang, salt, farmy poo, bitter hay, grain husk. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with more lemony tang, salt, wheat. Peculiar.

Keg at CBC Clerkenwell. Pours a hazy golden amber with a thin head. Smells smoky sausage with curry sauce on the side. Tastes same but with herbals on palate. It’s a decent and unusual beer.
