Description
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.»

On tap at Forschungsbrauerei. Red hazy with a great head. Very aromatic, a bit of astringency of red malt, nice citrus, heavy bitterness, as Max said more of an IPL. Nice body for a Lager, still quite dry though.

Flascherl (Gruesse gen Garching!!!): Deep ruby-amber coloured, clear, lively carbonation, medium-sized creamy and stable tanned head, rich aroma of herbal and flowery hops, dark malt and toasted malt with a (distinctive) pinch of freshly ground coffee; moderate to solid dryish bitter-sweet flavour, full bodied and astonishingly soft; dry and lingering herbal (and a bit piney) finish, repeating all the aromas from the beginning: toasted malt, dark malt, coffee and chocolate. Hats off! A new generation of Bavarian Doppelbocks! Devilishly drinkable...

Bottle. Hazy brown color with beige head. Aroma is sticky hops. Taste is grassy, chocolate, very hoppy. Oily mouthfeel with natural carbonation. Good one, but VERY hoppy!

Bottle courtesy of Munich Dave or Jonas, I am so sorry guys I have forgotten which one of you passed this on, anyway cheers to you both. Had this Saturday 27th March 2021 we had Prawn Taquitos with Spicy Avocado Salsa and Smokey Stuffed Peppers for tea and watched some 6Music Festival performances on the big screen. Pours dark chocolate brown with an off white creamy textured head and a little ruby glint that the light catches. Hoppy and fruity nose some dark fruit skins, a touch resinous. Quite fresh tasting, malty characteristics are present but hoppiness surprisingly on an equal footing. Nice beer, it's easy to forget these guys are in town, I've been to the brewery just the once but most of the beers that I have had have been pretty decent.

330ml bottle. Opalescent, chestnut colour with ruby shimmer and average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, off-white to beige head. Minimally spicy, caramel malty and fruity, hoppy aroma, notes of red berries and orange peel, mandarine peel, some earthy, leafy aspects as well. Taste is sweet-ish, caramel malty with a minimal sugary and nuttily touch, dry, fruity, minimally citrusy hoppy with a waxy touch, notes of orange peel, red berries. Slightly oily, watery texture, dry, minimally waxyand minimally cloying palate, fine and soft carbonation. More Red IPA / Amber Ale than regular IPA to me, but so what? - Pretty nice.

Bottle from Haussmann Getränke. Light yellow amber, slightly hazy, big head with a lemony grain nose. Mildly sour, high carb like a Weißbier, on the dry side and a bit watery with moderate/minimal complexity. Easy drinking.
