Description
The Schneeeule Brewery was founded in 2016 by Master Brewer Dipl. Ing. Ulrike Genz. After years of developing the recipe and thorough scientific study of the topic of the Berliner Weisse as a part of her Degree at the TU Berlin, in the spring of 2016 it was finally time and the brewery Schneeeule Berlin was founded. Finally, Berlin has a brewery producing original Berliner Weissr. The goal of the Schneeeule Brewery is nothing less than to give Berlin a piece of it’s culture back: Berliner Weisse. After both devastating world wars, the beer once known far beyond Berlin’s borders as the “Champagne of the North” is now almost only available as barely drinkable mass produced industrial beer. The reputation of the once National Drink of Berlin has been ruined. Master Brewer Ulrike Genz is doing her utmost to change this and to return the Weisse where it belongs; in every Bar and Restaurant worth its name in Berlin, and in a proper glass. All Beers brewed by the Schneeeule Brewery are bottle fermented with Brettanomyces and have matured in the bottle for at least 2 months. Just as it was done 150 years ago.

Hazy orange. Bit if white foam at first. Nice sour funk in the aroma, not too sour, something leather smokey there. Easy acidity, smooth mouthfeel, nice grain sour finish. Dry throat. Surprisingly good actually.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, orangey, dark golden colour with average, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Mild bretty, grassy and minimally floral hoppy and tart-ish spicy aroma, notes of fresh hay, weed, white grape juice. Taste is mildly tart, lactic, fruity, minimally funky and grassy hoppy, hints of white grape juice, fresh hay, weed, a touch of gooseberry. Very nice composition, well drinkable due to mild tartness. Good!

33cl bottle. Smooth fresh sourish mouldy beginning. The earthy-mouldy aroma harmonises well with the sour body. Refreshing but not too fresh, earthy mouldy sour stuff. Interesting.

33cl bottle. Smooth fresh sourish beginning. Lots of floralness and funk, the Yasmin-flowers are there, subtle and fresh-fruity-dry. Long fresh aftertaste, sourish smooth. Very nice.
