Description
The Obergärige Hausbrauerei Uerige (top-fermented craft brewery) is not a museum, but an exceedingly modern food business where a craft rich in centuries of tradition is carried out. It goes without saying that the Reinheitsgebot, or Purity Law dating from 1516, is still adhered to, because its results are good and lasting, relying, as it does, on nature as one of its main factors. Which is exactly what we do, too: our yummy droplet is made of nothing but water, barley, wheat malt, and our Uerige yeast.

Bottle, best until 13.02.05. Dark amber color, small head. Vinous aroma with biscuit. Hoppy, very malty flavor. This beer has a good hop character, but that is cahllanged by the malt, the wine-like character and the biscuit and butterscotch flavors. World class beer!. Thanks Dortmunder, for providing me with this gem.

Bottle: Trink Gut Getränkehalle in Kleve. Slight coffee and caramel aroma. Very hoppy flavor, a bit raw. Hint of licorice, vanilla and metal. Long bitter aftertaste. uality alt, must be even better from the brewery tap. A later sample gave a flowery hoparoma, a persistant earthy hopbitter flavor with roast, a hint iof licorice and salt and an earthy flowery long lasting aftertaste. Brewery tap: wow!! Hoppy, oily and also malty. Only medium bodied, but what a power stuff! Low on carbon. Light flowery hoparoma. The true greatness of this beer unfolds itself straight from the wooden cask. all n all, an excellent altbier, fresh, complex and perfectly drinkable.

Brewery tap, unmarked glass. A-typical weizen. I smell and taste hops in stead of the obvious banana character. Absolutely dry with some orange fruit. Likeable and full of character.

3rd LCRBM. Firm flowery and earthy flavor. Long hopbitter aftertaste. Hoparoma with even a hint of smoke. The difference between this beer and the "normal" bottled Uerige isn’t that great. This might be a bit more intense.

Swing top bottle @ URBM, Oirschot. Best beer of this great session. Very malty aroma and flavor with raisin, oak, laurel, armagnac. Alcoholic, but with loads of herbal hops. Great balance, astonishing beer!

330ml bottle from RusBeerShop in Moscow. Pours dark brown with a tall beige head. Aroma is prunes, nuts, treacle. Taste is malt, prunes, raisins, vinous, warming alcohol. Light bitter finish. A champion. My favourite barley wine that isn’t a barley wine.
