Description
Craft beer in its purest form is what Sebastian Sauer, the head behind Freigeist beer culture, produces. Sebastian is known among experts as one of the first craft beer brewers in Germany. True or not, he's a veteran in the craft beer scene and an expert who is second to none. It's not for nothing that his beers are more popular than any other German beer in the USA, the home of craft beer.

Free spirit beer culture is conquering the craft beer world with the salvation of old, long-forgotten beer styles. Sebastian reads himself into the matter until he has found out all the ingredients of the original recipe and the subtleties and secrets of the old brewing style. With this knowledge, he then ponders how the beer would be brewed these days and what ingredients would be used. He doesn't want to bring old camels out of grandma's handbag to the light of day, but rather to transport the beers of the past with skill and expertise into the present. His beers are therefore not just reproductions of old recipes, but rather modern new editions. With this concept, the brewery has made a good name for itself in the craft beer scene and attracted international attention.

Bottle. Cloudy, kind of brown in color. Medium head. Both aroma and taste were of a fruity sourness. Didn't get the strawberry.

Tap at Beergeek. Opaque golden pour, white head. It's pretty complex both in aroma and taste, showing notes of wood, booze, light acetic acid, fruity grapes, a decent amount of funk as well, just as I like it. That being said, despite its complexity and many layers I still couldnt really love this, there was something missing. Or, actually on the contrary, it was just a tiny bit too much. A tasty brew nevertheless, but not there in the best ones for me.

Bottle. What a wonderful, weird beer. Appearance is a really dark, cloudy, brown, golden apple juice look. Taste is herb and sour. Aroma is funky , fruity and ...well kind of strange. I like it.

Bottle. Brown in color with a red hue when held to the light. Very slightly hazy. Aroma is slight fruit but not really cherries, grains and bread. Taste is sweetly sour. But not really sour, maybe fruity. Also had notes of roasted grains and bread. Really good.

Bottle at volo.
Hazy yellow pour, medium white head. Aroma of sour wheat, and light lemon with some subtle herbs. Watery, and thin mouth feel, medium carb. Lacklustre finish.....watery, like a glass of water with some lemon in it. Subtlely tart, with faint lemon notes, and the wheat gets lost.
