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.

7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
330ml bottle. Jet black colour with huge, thick, frothy to creamy, splendidly lasting, moderately lacing, beige head. Grassy, herbal, hoppy aroma, notes of hay and green onions, roasty dark malty basis with a coffee touch, hints of woodruff and cautious touch of mint. Taste is minimally sweet, dark malty, slightly roasty, hints of coffee, grassy, herbal hoppy overtones, spicy hints of hay, some woodruff, a touch of mint. Quite mild and mellow, almost a bit curbed - but well-endowed with all features a Black IPA needs.

330ml bottle from Bier-Deluxe

Pours orange with a thick head. Aroma of grassy hops, citrus, grainy malts, herbal notes and stingy resin. Taste is crisp, stingy and a bit herbal with some grainy malts and stuffy sweetness. Finish is sweetish, crisp and grainy with hints of hops. Decent.

0.33 l bottle from Bottle Shop, Salzburg, Austria. Clear golden with creamy diminishing off-white head, leaving a lacing on the glass. Fruity hops, dried fruits, grass. Light at first, you start to feel the hops, bitter and a sweet kick after, like gingerbread. Bitter finish calling the alcohol notes. Very good. 0.33 l bottle shared with Marko and Anna God. Thanks! Hazy golden, small off-white head. Mostly malty, doughy, biscuity. Light citrus hops. Spices. Spicy and zesty, orange juice flavours. A bit better balance, light bitterness. Juicy, tart citrusy finish. Medium body, drinkable, light finish.

0.33 l bottle at #Belgiek - Beffa Bar. Dark with tan head. Fruity, roasty, hoppy. Red fruits. Great balance between roasty bitterness and red fruit sweetness. Liquorice, sweet dried fruits, full body. Lasting dry sweet-bitter finish. This is just great! 0.33 l bottle shared with Marko and Anna God. Thanks! Moderately to heavily hoppy, herbal, zesty, resinous. Roasty, dried fruit, prunes, red fruit. Dominating herbal and spicy. Good balance. Some alcohol present, bourbon, roasty, tart fruity and roasty flavours. Molasses in flavour, but no sweetness. Some residual bitterness. Beautiful.
