Description
Hornbeer is a farmhouse brewery founded in the beginning of 2008 by Gunhild and Jorgen Fogh Rasmussen. The first brewery was very small, brewing only 300 liter batches. But end of July 2008 the brewery burnt down to the ground. Now Gunhild and Jorgen had to start again from scratch. In January 2009 the new brewery started operations. Nowadays the production is around 2000 hl/year. Hornbeer is well known for a very different assortment. Hornbeer´s philosophy is that the beers should be distinctive but still very drinkable.

--Sample, thanks fonefan! -- Black small head. Aroma of milky cocoa powder. Very sweet with light body and clean mouthfeel. Like licking instant milk chocolate drink powder. No bitterness. Suitable for children up to the age of 6. Crazy bad.

Backlog January 2017. Unclear amber body under a fluffy beige head – gusher. Aroma is light roasted, malty and funky. Taste is sweet, dark malt, acidity and dry fruit. Medium body and same sweet & sour aftertaste. Drinkable but perhaps not exactly hos this beer was intended to be?
