About
Brew Age is a young and innovative company taking old brewing traditions and developing them further. The newly created beers and beer styles are then to offer new impressions and flavours to the beer expert and the beer newbie alike.
We went through various scenarios in our heads: our own brewery vs. gypsy brewing, establishing a brand and, most importantly, developing recipes. Finally we settled on the concept of gypsy brewing. Following an intense search for a partner brewery, we finally managed to start our cooperation with Reinhold Barta at Brauhaus Gusswerk. Today, we still brew our beers at Gusswerk, and in a way you can call us sedentary gypsy brewers: in contrast to classic gypsy brewers, who produce their beer (or have it produced) at various breweries, we brew our beers almost exclusively at Gusswerk, strictly according to our own specifications. For the near future, we are planning to build our own brewery in Vienna.

Day 2 of my Eisbock-Week. Had this bottle for years on the shelf, must be pre Covid 19. BB End 2022. Cloudy amber in the glass, no real head. Intensive fruity aroma, plum and cherry, dark smooth malty. Boozy with barrelwood. Taste is creamy malty and milk choco with smooth Bourbon and vanilla. Dark fruity, sticky boozy. But in a great and balanced way. Again a dangerous easy to drink Eisbock. No really carbonation. Great stuff.

Bottle from Jonas drunk at HopDog, thanks! Lightly hazy brown, nose of sticky toffee and caramel. Flavor is super sweet, huge body, not so hoppy so it's way on the sweet side. Smooth for over twelve percent, not too complex, it's a tasty sticky dessert treat.

very hazy pale yellow colour, medium sized dense white head; aroma of rotten pineapple, peach and mango, some rotten vegetables, grapefruity and celery notes; taste of hoppy bitterness with the same disturbing rotten-like notes as can be felt in the aroma; I am not really amazed...

Ein alkoholfreies IPA ... Optisch goldgelb und opaltrüb mit feiner Perlage. Die weiße, feinporige Schaumkrone wirkt dabei flaumig und mäßig gut haltbar. In der Nase vernimmt man eine satte Malzbasis, die an Bierwürze erinnert. Ebenso grasig-erdige bis leicht fruchtig-zitrusartige Hopfennoten. Wenn ich raten müsste, würde ich auf eine klassische deutsche Aromasorte (Hersbrucker, Hallertauer Tradition, ...) in der Kalthopfung tippen. Der Antrunk kommt frisch, sehr fein rezent, zart malzig, fruchtig-zitrusartig und herb. Im Mund zeigt sich ein sehr schlanker Körper mit sehr feiner Rezenz, seidiger Textur und guter Trockenheit. Geschmacklich und aromatisch legt sich eine zarte Malzbasis aus, auf der sich sehr frische, grasige und zitrusartige, leicht säuerlich wirkende Hopfenaromen tummeln. Der nötige bittere Geschmack darf nicht fehlen und ist ganz gut eingebunden. Ein - selbstverständlich - hopfenbetontes Spektakel, welches ein durchaus erfrischendes und angenehmes Gesamtbild zeichnet. Die angenehme Drinkability sorgt für eine erfrischende, sommerliche Trinkfreude. Im Nachtrunk halten die präsenten Hopfenaromen eine gute Weile an. Danach kommt eine leichte Malznote durch, die gemeinsam mit einer guten und sehr angenehmen Hopfenbittere sehr lange wirkt.
