Description
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.

Ein Wr. Lager aus Wien ist immer eine Freude. Dieses habe ich auf einem Bierfest am Wr. Donaukanal im Sommer 2015 das erste Mal getrunken und jetzt habe ich mir wieder eine Flasche im größten Wr. Getränkemarkt gekauft. Damals hat es mir nicht besonders geschmeckt, da es in der heißen Jahreszeit schnell zu süß wirkt. Jetzt im WInter finde ich den karamell-malzigen Körper nicht übel. Dadurch wird es schön vollmundig und hat lässt eine angenehme Schwere auf der Zunge. Nicht schlecht

330ml bottle at home bought at Beer Store Vienna. Bottled 19.06.2015. BB 14.02.2016. yellow clear color, small white head. smells grains, elder flowers, bread, tobacco, light herbs. medium body, light carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes tobacco, grains, some herbs, bread, lightly citric, some sweetness, only hints of elder flower noticeable in the background. finishes with bready and light herbal notes. only on the aftertaste a bit more elder flower notes. I was expecting this to be rather light and refreshing, but the mouthfeel and the malt notes are actually surprising heavy for the low ABV. I would have expected at least some more elder flowers notes. OKish beer, definitly nothing I would drink on a hot summer day though (if only I knew beforehand).

Text von 2017:
Das Bier habe ich vor einigen Jahren getrunken und damals war es mir zu brutal. Alkoholisch als auch aromentechnisch. Es ist das was ich als Aromenbombe bezeichnen würde: volle Romtopf-Noten mit einem herben nussigen Unterton, der immer duchscheint. Dazu immer wieder Kirschlikör und Haselnussschmnaps. Mir ist das zu viel, aber ich kann mir gut vorstellen, dass sowas genau das richtige für wahre Bockbierfreunde auf der Suche nach dem Aromenorgasmus.

33 cl bottle @ Sankt Hans Tasting, Ulfborg.
Aroma has fruity hops and cereal-like malt. Flavour has tropical fruits, cereal and grapefruit. Refreshing, I like the grapefruity hops here.
