Description
AF Brew is one of the pioneers of Russian craft beer revolution. We started the show in the ‘faraway’ 2012 in St. Petersburg, the most beer-focused and heritage city of Russia. Four years ago we started as a gipsy brewery having launched one of the first accessible craft beers in Russia – Ingria IPA, with the name dedicated to historically disputed region where the city of St. Petersburg is located. Our primary mission has never changed since then – we brew beer which was never brewed before and we keep no rules. November 2016 we turned the biggest page in our history: we finally built our very own brewery in our home city. The brewery is located on the historical site of 18-19th century city brewery and we did our best to make it a very nice and devoted place to brew and to spend time in. The open plan site with 20 hl brewing system and 400 hl fermentation capacity is supposed to grow twice in two years. It is already a home base for all our brews, collaborations and guest projects. It’s coupled with a barrel-room full of various wood-aging stuff and a taproom to drink, talk and have fun around.

Bottled 330ml (Beer Rep, bottled 19.10.21)
Dark brown colour, tiny mostly vanishing head. Dark dried fruits, black bread coffee and chocolate in the nose. Light to medium-bodied. Dark sweet bread, chocolate in the flavour. A bit on the light side, probably partly because of its age.

Can. Black color with beige head. Aroma is chocolate, butterscotch, toffee, very tempting. Taste is strong chocolate, very tasty, sweet, but also some decent roast, also some bitterness for balance. Velvety mouthfeel with Soft carbonation. Русский военный корабль, иди нахуй!
