Description
In 1861 the 25-years old Heinrich Schneider decided to found a brewery on the “Grün’schen Hof” in Hachenburg. The Hachenburger brewery soon became the most important family brewery within the region. With business leader and co-owner Jens Geimer the family-owned company has reached the fifth generation and is still entirely independent.

Key to the success is that the beer is consistently cooled, the precious beer has achieved its special aroma over and over again for 150 years. What was true then is still true today: the long and cold ageing process is a fundamental requirement for a real Hachenburger as well as the use of high-grade raw materials. As well as the natural spring water from the Rothbach valley

Selection No. 01 India Pale Ale from Westerwald-Brauerei H. Schneider (Hachenburger)

6.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Bouteille: Deep golden to light amber coloured, stable and lacy loose off-white head, light to moderate fruity- malty nose, some spicy hops - VERY RESTRAINED - in the background; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, pretty light bodied for a beer of 7.2 %; slightly lingering hops in the fruity-malty finish. Mission failed; a well drinkable brew, but by no means a hoppy IPA…

75 cl bottle, BBE 12/2015
Aroma is weird and stale with berries, toilet refreshener and hints of exotic fruits. Flavour is stale with gooseberry bush, some grassy hops, nettles, fruits and cooked vegetables. Some vanilla in the finish. A british IPA in a German way.

Herb-muffiger, dunkel getreidiger Antrunk. Muffig-erdig, der Hopfen bleibt im Hintergrund. Erst später kommen Hopfennoten hervor, diese sind aber laff und langweilig. Dunkel-hopfiger, leicht honigartiger Abgang. Mal wieder eine Brauerei, die ein IPA brauen möchte, dieses aber übermäßig „deutsch“ braut und damit scheitert. 11/7/8/9/13/8

Das Schwarze ist ein klassiches deutsches Schwarzbier mit guten Röstmalz-Aromen. Diese könnten aber etwas feiner und vollmundiger sein.
