Description
1752 erhielt Johann Friedrich Pierson die Braurechte verliehen. Seitdem braut meine Familie nun schon neun Generationen Bierspezialitäten - so wie die Nordhessen sie lieben - auf der Knallhütte. Damit erhielt die nordhessische Braugeschichte und Braukultur eine feste Heimat.

Brewery closed, brand still existing brewed at owners facilities (Gräflich von Mengersen'sche Dampfbrauerei Rheder).

"Hütt Landbier", Flasche, 21.9.2025. - Die Brauerei Hütt wird hier etwas voreilig bereits als "Out of business" geführt, obwohl die Rettungsaktion noch läuft und bei Ratio in Baunatal nach wie vor das volle Sortiment erhältlich ist. - Kupfergold, leicht trüb. - In der Nase blaß karamelliges Malz und die etwas gequälte, ein wenig harsch wirkende orangenfruchtig-herbale Hopfung eines Industriebieres. - Antrunk mild hellmalzig mit dünner Karamelnote, milder Restsüße und gar nicht so übler orangenfruchtig-hopfenwürziger Hopfung. Durchschnittlich rezent, schlank. Im Abgang milde Herbe. - Dieses "nordhessische Original" aus der Knallhütte ist gar nicht so übel, zwar etwas dünn und nur mild gehopft aber doch rund, frisch und süffig.
