About
The Brauhaus Gusswerk is an innovative symbiosis of a beer bar and a brewery, a place for enjoyment, communication and cosiness. The initiator of this unique project is Salzburg's Reinhold Barta, passionate brewer. After more than ten years of organic brewing experience he realized his organic brewery in Salzburg's “Gusswerk” in 2007. Reinhold Barta's goal is to make sustainable and biodynamic beer in Austria socially acceptable. When he saw the plans of the "Gusswerk", he immediately knew: "This is where my brewery belongs." The beer should be drawn from the strength of its origin, of course with purely organic ingredients and old, natural manufacturing processes that reflect the circle of nature.

AAA Austrian Amber Ale from Brauhaus Gusswerk

7.3/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7.5
Very good, dense yellow head, stable, over finely carbonated clear amber beer. Exotic fruit, passion fruit, citrus(peel), lychee, rosewater, caramel, fine green leaves. Herbs as parsley, cilandro, on top of caramelly fruitesters; with grape, grapefruit, lychee, bitter melon. Also some earthy notes, peppery. Hopoil galore, and a quite bitter edge overlying sugars. Very (hopoil)slick, oily, viscous. Medium bodied, creamy by the impossibly stable head - some iron? The AAA moniker is somewhat cheap, but the quality certainly is A+. Purchased at the brewpub

"Urban-Keller" nowhere on the label Very good, dense, yellowish head, very regular over hazy foxy amber beer, some lace. Sweet malts, somewhat weyish, faintly leaves, laurel. Again leafy, but with some dry bitterness, balanced by both sourish CO² and some (sweeter) malts. Fresh herbs, very young hazelnuts. Light body, quite spritzy. Nice, but I miss something as Maillard or caramelisation from the stones. Purchased at the brewpub in Elsenwang.

Nicobar Organic India Pale Ale from Brauhaus Gusswerk

6.9/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7
Explosive gushing to very good, lacey, stable cream to mango head over fully hazy orange-brown beer. With the foamfontain, also explosion of fruity hopesters, rosewater, lunaria, lupulinbomb; pistacchio marzipan. Dry, fruity flavour but also a more chemical (in the best sense of the word) and woody dry-bitterness. Oxydized hops, lupulin, hopoils, citruspeel, rosewater. At least medium bodied, +/- overcarbonated, spritzy, chewy, and more than a tad sticky. Certainly not bad, if just under the real top-IPA treshold. Brauerei Gushwork? Purchased @ the brewery

Bottle, Eurospar, Spielberg. Clear darker orange coppery, medium and quite lasting white head. Medium bready nose, slightly sweet, some nice caramel notes. Milder bitterness, a bit grassy. Spicy finish and grassy spicy aftertaste. Lighter body. Drinkable.

Red-shot dark brown beer under a frothy lagered cream to dark beige head. Roast, ashes, heated waffle syrup, undergrowth. Dry, really ashy, some caramel backthroat; liquorice. Very faintly mineral. Bit chewy & viscous; good carbonation. Decent light stout.

Red Ale from Brauhaus Gusswerk

6.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 6.5
Small, rather stable yellow head over (cold)hazed amber beer. Quite some caramel upon opening, parsley, toffee, but also something chemical, vaguely smelling of shoepolish. Bitter leafy flavour however, autumn leaves, bittering hops. Ends metallic, with some pine. Warming up, the caramel returns to the flavour, as well withs some apple(skins). Feels very carbonated, almost fizzy, which works against the sweetness of the caramel, adding some acidity. Very slick, light to medium bodied. Nose wasn't exactly a delight, but for the rest, pretty much OK.
