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.

Bottle. Orange colour. Not hazy, but it looks ’thick’. Nice head. Well balanced aroma. Hoppy, not in a sticky way, it´s rather mild. I also smell some malt. The flavor is very bitter at first. It kills your mouth like some kind of medicine. The after taste on the other hand is sweet with with notes of vanilla, caramel and sour pears.
