Description
Der Gründung der Brauerei im Jahr 2000 waren vier Jahre in Oberbayern vorausgegangen, die nicht sehr positiv für meine Motivation zur Brauereiarbeit waren.
So aktivierte ich eine Idee, die mir schon seit meiner Lehrzeit im Kopf herumspukte und begann mit den Planungen für meine eigene kleine Brauerei.
Die Idee, ein regionales Bier für einen regionalen Markt zu brauen brauchte eine Menge Überzeugungsarbeit und letztendlich einen starken Partner. Diesen Partner habe ich in Udo Fuhrhop, dem Besitzer des Forellenhofes Walsrode in Hünzingen gefunden. Er war von Anfang an von der Sache überzeugt und unterstützte mich auch in der Arbeit bei der Bank.
Letztlich hat sich die Idee in den letzten Jahren durchgesetzt und es wird eine Weiterentwicklung geben.
Wesentliches Merkmal wird aber immer der möglichst direkte Kontakt zu meinen Kunden bleiben, den Sie sind es, die meine Idee leben und meinen Lebenstraum weitertragen.

Huge thanks to WillemsUrenkel for that one! Bottle looks good. Beer in the glass with a nice small head. Starts malty, spicy, sweetish. Hints of honey. Some herbs. Shy bitterness. Finish grasy-sweetish-spicy. Could be more balanced. Okay.

0,33 l bottle from the brewery. BB 30.03.26. Cloudy mid golden in the glass, small one finger white head. Sweet grain and caramel plus some honey on the nose. Taste has also sweet grain and caramel, soft honey in the background. Low but present bitterness. Below average carbonated. Better than expected.

Huge thanks to WillemsUrenkel for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass amber coloured, nice head. Malty-spicy aroma. Starts mild, malty, light sourish touch. Some hints of caramel, some wood, some herbs. Finish more balanced. Interesting one.

Can 33 cl. Pours a cloudy golden with a solid, white head. Rather spicy, hoppy aroma. Medium body, somewhat fizzy mouthfeel, a dry fruitiness and a rather bitter finish. Considering the hops used I guess this should be labeled as an APA. 031024

Danke Holger. Smooth mild beginning. Easy to drink, hints of grain with a fruity mild finish. Refreshing, grainy with a not too deep but grainy sessionable ending.
