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.”

Friday... first beer. Smell- weak, malt, paint, gasoline, roast, for me feels chemical or weird, but I appreciate it and never lovered score before. Foam- malt, roast, syrup, more roast and malt, faint sweetness, caramel, gasoline. Head is small, beautiful dark brown color. Sticks. Appearance - somewhat nice can design, a bonus point for that. Black color, weak carbonation. From - pint Price- 5.17 euros for 0.33l Taste- malt, roast, caramel, then hit of bitterness, again malt and roast. The alcohol creeps up on you, sweetness also. Still feels like paint a bit somehow. Strong stuff, but overall - pleasant. Kind of grows on you.

Can from Beers@Moviefun. Hazy yellow, small, frothy, white head. Aroma of ripe mandarin, passion fruit, guava, peach, pineapple, dough. Taste has sweet pineapple, mandarin & peach; softly bitter citrus peel with sourish zest over a doughy malt base. Bitter, dryish, floral hoppy finish, lingering mandarin & citrus peels, somewhat grapefruity. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Very fruity, but not exceptionally fresh.

Owoce tropikalne, trochę cytrusów. Barwa złota, mętne, piana redukuje się do niskiej, delikatny lacing. Goryczka średnioniska, cytrusowa, pestkowa. Owocowe, kremowe, jest po prostu dobre, bez wad, bez szału.

23/VI/22 - 50cl can @ home, BB: 1/VII/22 (2022-772) Thanks to ElManana+1 for sharing the can!
Little cloudy deep purple to dark bordeaux beer, practically no head. Aroma: lots and lots of blueberries, some blackcurrant, quite some overripe banana. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: a bit sweet, nice acidity, very fruity, sourish, cherries, some ripe banana, a bit weird, juicy, sweet touch. Aftertaste: lots of blueberry, ripe banana, sweet and sugary mix, pretty acidic. Not too bad, not great either.
