Description
In Mönchengladbach-Waldhausen, genau auf der Quelle des Gladbachs steht das ehemalige Sudhaus der Brauerei Gebrüder Hensen. Gegründet im Jahre 1793 wurden bis in die 70er Jahre an gleicher Stelle die Biere der traditionsreichen Brauerei Gebrüder Hensen gebraut.
Dem allgemeinen Brauereisterben in Deutschland geschuldet, stellte man die Produktion Mitte der 70er Jahre ein.
Anfang 2015 erkannten wir, dass der Stadt Mönchengladbach ein neues Bier gutstehen würde.
Schnell fassten wir den Entschluss dies zu ändern: Das Projekt Hensen Brauerei war geboren.

Bottle shared @ Koelschtrinker's Tasting. Smooth dry malty beginning. Easy to drink, round and smooth. Hints of smoke in the back, malty smooth with not too much bitterness. Nice sessionable brown beer with hints of smoke in the back. Nice one.

Bottle @ Koelschtrinker's Tasting. Smooth floral fresh beginning. Easy to drink, the blood oranges are there, sessionable with grainy hints in the back. Smooth an refreshing, blood oranges over slightly floral hops, not too intense, a great session-beer with lots of fruitiness.

Moderat rauchiger Beginn. Süßlich würzig-herb, trocken, mild rauchig bleibend. Süffig, mittellanger Nachhall. Ok, könnte intensiver sein. 8/7/9/9/9/7

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle from 'Holy Craft Beer Store', best before April 2018. Clear, dark brownish amber with an off-white head. Sweetish-malty, slightly smoky aroma of caramel, nuts and some smoked ham. Moderately sweet, malty, slightly smoky taste of smoked ham, caramel and some nuts, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly smoky finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Okay.
