Deutsche Braukunst und Tradition oder amerikanisches Craft-Beer? Der Hopfenhäcker Kreativbrauer bringt’s zusammen. Brauhandwerk gelernt und fasziniert vom „American Way“, Bier zu interpretieren. Zwei Männer – der Münchner und der Ami – brauen in der Garage, bis sie beide der Meinung sind:
«So schee war’s überhaupt no nia.»

Bottle. Unclear amber color with white head. Aroma is distinctly hoppy, nice exotic fruits, caramel malts. Taste is a bit grassy, nice tropical fruits again, caramel, hoppy finish with warming finish. Oily mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Very nice hop character, quite well-balanced, nice!

Bottle picked up from the brewery and consumed at home Attenkirchen, Bavaria Sunday 14th April 2019 making the Thomasina Miers Chilli that I was supposed to make yesterday. Pours black well on closer inspection maybe very dark brown with a tan head. Chocolate (dark and light bitter) cocoa powder, light smokiness, but it really is nicely done. Very easy drinking, like a nice chocolate stout, doesn't taste 7.5%.

Bottle picked up from the brewery (I also had this on tap at the brewery Saturday 30th March) consumed at home Attenkirchen, Bavaria, Sunday 7th April 2019. Pours amber with a large clinging white head, light haze. Malty nose, a little citrussy and a touch of English Breakfast Tea. Some tea in the mouth, lots of malt but fruit aplenty, hops provide a lazy but bitterness that builds, nice rustic edge to it. Sweetness but not so much. Good.
