Description
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.

Optisch klar und rötlich kupferfarben. Die weiße, feinporige Schaumkrone wirkt wässerig-flaumig und hält mäßig gut. Im Duft fruchtig-floral und kräuterartig mit Noten von reifen Zitrusfrüchten, reifem Steinobst und Kräuterlimo. Der Antrunk kommt frisch, angenehm spritzig, zart malzig bis fruchtig und deutlich hopfenbitter. Im Mund präsentiert sich ein sehr schlanker Körper mit wenig Viskosität, sehr feiner Rezenz, deutlicher Adstringenz und entsprechender Trockenheit. Geschmacklich und Aromatisch bleibt dieses Red Ale eher trocken und kräuterartig hopfenbetont bitter. Die karamellige Malzigkeit, sowie die fruchtigen Noten werden sehr in den Hintergrund gedrückt. Etwas mehr Ausgewogenheit würde diesem Bier wahrscheinlich nicht schaden - auch wenn es sich sehr gut trinken lässt und alles andere als schlecht erscheint. Aufgrund der doch recht deutlichen Bittere und Adstringenz ist die Drinkability etwas gebremst, aber trotzdem durchaus gut. Im Nachtrunk kommt die karamellige Malzigkeit nochmal schön auf und weicht zunehmend der trockenen, grasig-heuig-kräuterigen Hopfenbittere. Mein Fazit: Durchaus erfrischend, zart karamellig malzig und kräftig bitter. Ich finde es trotz einiger persönlicher Abstriche durchaus gut.

gift from kapusil - many thanks, my friend! opalescent orange-ish amber colour, minimal ecru-ish head; aroma of toffee, honeycomb toffee, dried apricot and pear, soy sauce, dried figs, slight anise and canned apple notes; taste is quite similar to the aroma with some salty-leather-like, as well as burnt sugary-syrupy notes and spicy alcohol in the aftertaste; really good one!

0.33l bottle. Clear amber body with a thin and quickly collapsing white head. Aroma of bready malts, caramel, hay and a tiny bit of dates. Taste of caramel, apples, dates and bready malts. No fireworks, but it's still an OK beer.

On tap at Zum Wohl Vienna. A tiny bit opaque golden body with a lasting moderate-sized white head. Aroma and taste of grainy malts and floral hops with some yeast notes and even a drop of lemon juice. I enjoyed it.

Medium to light bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, dry zesty fruity malty bittersweet finish. Quite a good very solid Irish Red.
