About
2011 haben Mario und Timm ihre Jobs gekündigt und in einer Hinterhof-WG im Münchner Glockenbachviertel ihre erste Heimbrauanlage aufgebaut. Für den Traum vom eigenen Bier tauschten sie Anzug und Krawatte gegen Latzhose und Gummistiefel.

Ihr Ziel: kreative und spannende Biere, die die langweilige deutsche Bierwelt revolutionieren. Ihr Umfeld: erklärte sie für verrückt. Doch nach monatelangem Feilen an der Rezeptur und unzähligen Probesuden war es so weit: das erste Bier der CREW Republic, das heutige »Foundation 11 – German Pale Ale«, war gelungen. Eine kleine Brauerei wurde gefunden, die die Experimente auf einer größeren Anlage fortführte. Mit den ersten Flaschen des frisch gebrauten Craft Bieres gab es nur ein Ziel: die Herzen der Münchener Biertrinker zu erobern. Stetig wuchs die Fan-Gemeinde von CREW Republic.

Doch dann ein neues Problem: zu wenig Bier und vertröstete Kunden. Eine eigene Brauerei musste her. Zwei Jahre Planung, dann konnte der Traum verwirklicht werden. Seit Mai 2015 steht die CREW Republic Brewery im Norden von München. Ab Sommer 2017 auch mit eigenem Craft Bier Garten und Tap Room.

CREW Republic steht für ehrliche, handwerklich gebraute und geschmacklich außergewöhnliche Biere. Mario und Timm sind immer auf der Suche nach neuen Rezepturen und den besten Rohstoffen der Welt. Ihre Mission: »Brewing Awesomeness.« Ihr Motto: »Craft Beer is not a Crime!«

Ins Glas ergießt sich ein leicht trübes bernsteinfarbenes Bier mit schöner Schaumkrone. Geruch nach Citrus, Blumen. Geschmack sehr malzig, fruchtig herb, leicht nach Kräutern.

Bottle shared by Leighton. It pours hazy orange-amber with a medium off-white head. The nose is marmalade, pine, sherbet, light alcohol and some caramel sweetness. The taste is pine, toast, good bitterness, orange peel, sherbet, toast, resin, icing sugar, sherbet and a smack of alcohol. Medium body and average carbonation. A solid double IPA by all accounts.

Bottle shared by Joes. Murky opaque dark orange color, small beige head. Smell malts, hops, a bit citrussy. Taste malts, hops, some fruityness. Average to medium body and carbonation. A bit unbalanced mix, but there’s certainly potential here.
