Description
In Gunzenhausen, mitten im wunderschönen fränkischen Seenland, pflegen wir noch echtes Brauerhandwerk. Traditionelle Biere, wie sie nur aus der traditionellen Bierhochburg Franken kommen, finden Sie hier genauso wie innovative Produkte. Wir lieben Bier und so brauen wir es auch.

Mit den Schorschbräu-Starkbieren führen wir einen Trend weiter, der sich Weltweit unter Bierkennern durchsetzt. Sehr Starke und handwerklich gebraute Biere mit ihrem unverwechselbaren Charakter sprechen den Genießer an, weit weg vom üblichen Einheitsbier.

Schorschbräu-Biere sind ganz klassisch nach dem Deutschen Reinheitsgebot gebraut. Durch spezielle Bierhefen, viel Malz und mindestens 4 Monate Lagerung erreichen wir sehr hohe Alkoholgehalte. Dadurch sind Kohlensäuregehalt und Schaumhaltbarkeit eher gering, das Aromaprofil aber sehr interessant und die Biere sehr dunkel.

Bottled (Schorschbräu 16%, from beerangel.de). Reddish orange colour, no head. Aroma is alcohol, sweeness along with some rather sherry/madeira like notes. Flavour is quite complex, lots of sweet fruits, alcohol and some syrup. Juiceextract too. At the same time some rather old, but sweet madeira-like notes. Very fullbodied and thick palate.

’Bottled (as Schorschbock 13 %). Hazy deep orange colour small off-white creamy head. Aroma is alcohol, fruits, mild vanilla as well as some birchwood. Flavour is sweet fruits, quite stingy alcohol sweetness as well as some mild yeasty notes. One of the sweetest and fruitiest Doppelbocks I have had. One bottle is enough. Wellbalanced, but a bit too sweet to be enjoyed in amounts...

Bottle sample at a tasting. Hazy golden. Aroma of grains, alcohol, some smoke and caramel. Very sweet flavor, a bit smoky, with some caramel. Medium-bodied. Not good but OK. Quite an odd Doppelbock.

Bottled (BBE 2012). Courtesy of bierkoning, ty Edo! Dark orange-ruby color, no head. Sweet berryish and malty aroma, kind of barley wine/old ale -type. Of course also alcoholic. Very sweet, syrapy texture ... molasses, mangosteen, malts, strawberry juice extract, madeira or sherry elements. Late warning (or burning, whatever you like) alcohol. Much better than I was afraid of.

50 cl ceramic bottle from my uncle. BB 09 2010. Hazy orange color, small white head. Smoke and alcohol scent. Sweet, dry, wood, acidic taste. Low to medium mouthfeel, low bitterness. Warming alcohol. Like sucking on a piece of dry alder wood soaked in booze.
