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.”

wyraźny, chmielowy zapach, słodki. żywica, mango, owoce, lekki skunks. piana obfita, ale niezbyt ładna. kolor bursztynu, mocno zmętniony, ale bez grudek i równomiernie. w smaku dość słodkie, ale nie jestem w stanie powiedzieć, czy od słodu, czy od chmielu. wysoka, świeża goryczka, jak żywica z syropem owocowym. przypomina trochę bardzo mocno nachmieloną pszenicę z pomarańczą i kolendrą. nasycenie średnie. piwo bardzo przyjemne
