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 from Trinkgut. Color: Hazy pale golden, white head. Aroma: Grassy hop. Taste: Grassy and floral hop. Hints of citrus fruit and tropical fruit. Some minerals and bread. Grainy background. Light to moderate sweet and light bitterness. Just below medium body, below average carbonation. Quite thin. I expected and was hoping for more flavor, more hop. Somewhat disappointing but drinkable.

Dry malty beginning. Very nice malty bittered with a nice malty dry sweetness in the back. Easy to drink, fruity malty with a great sweet-dry roasted finish. Nice one. Thanks David!

Dunkelmalziger, dann auch schnell hopfiger und weich bitterer Antrunk. Geringe Süße, Noten von Kakao, intensiv. Würzig-hopfig, frisch, ein wenig trocken. Langer würziger Abgang - lecker! 8/11/12/12/11/12
