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.”

0,5l can from Piwne Mosty online store. BBE 30.11.2022. Clear golden beer with medium but stable white head. Aroma has sweet hops, fruity notes and soap. Flavor has fruits but also nice amount of bitter woody notes. Pine and grass, caramel. Very tasty.

0,5l can from Piwne Mosty online store. BBE 26.11.2022. Clear golden beer with medium white head. Aroma has malts and exotic fruits. Flavor is typical good Polish quality with exotic, somehow ripe fruits, some pine and grass. Bitter aftertaste is long and dry. Good.

Tap at Zil verne. Med-full body, medium carbonation. Med-high sweetness, oatiness, medium bitterness. Medium hops character, could be more intense. Vaguely fruity, slightly exotic. Good but not great.

Tap at Zil verne. Medium sweetness, light sourness. Rather thin body and low carbonation. Kinda weird flavour combination. I get rather kola nut, light liquorice, anise. Mango in the background, med-light blackcurrant. Interesting, easy drinking. Could use more bubbles though.

On tap at Manifest Taproom, Berlin. Black with a small tan head. A lot of peat, whisky and salmiak. A pleasant one.

Białe owoce, tropiki, winogronowe. Złote, opalizujące, piana redukuje się do krążka, lacing obecny. Goryczka srednioniska, łodygowa. Niby wszystko ok ale jakieś takie dziwne. Niby chcą wejść jakieś nuty słodowe, ale są słabe. Niby chce być owocowe ale też stłumione.

Słodowe w stylu chleba, super posmak zbożowy, na finiszu ziołowe. Barwa złota, lekko zmetnione, piana redukuje się do krążka. Goryczka zaznaczona, ziołowa, przyjemna. Czyste, bez fajerwerków, bardzo przyjemne.

Cytrusowe, lekko naftowe, trochę tropików. Barwa złota, mętne, trwała piana i ładny lacing. Goryczka średnioniska, trawy cytrynowej. W tym piwie wszystko jest idealnie wyważone. Pełnia, owocowosc, goryczka. Brawo.
