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.

33cl bottle from Holy Craft, Düsseldorf. Smooth malty sourish beginning. The beer is dusty roasted with sour fruity hints. Very interesting, round and refreshing with an interesting malty sourish aftertaste.

Fläschken: Literally black, medium-sized and slowly collapsing tanned head; sourish caramelly-fruity nose with yeast, roasted malt and coffee in the second row; dryish bitter-sourish flavour, nearly medium bodied, not so soft; lingering bitter-roasty finish with shy traces of coffee-grounds. Not really convincing...
