Adam Riese is not only the namesake of a figure of speech, he is also considered the forefather of German mathematics. The arithmetic master was born in the Middle Ages and made a name for himself with a textbook. Instead of composing his document in Latin, as was customary at the time, the mathematician wrote his work in German and thus reached not only the intellectual upper class, but also less educated people of the lower classes. At least those who could read. In addition to spreading the art of arithmetic, the scholar is also credited with making a significant contribution to the implementation of our present-day number system. Before that, the much more complicated Roman numerals were used, which were not very practical in everyday life.
The neighboring Ebensfeld brewery brewed a commemorative beer for the 500th birthday of this number-loving man from Bad Staffelstein. Your Adam Riese Trunk is a special beer with a dark soul and strong character. The 5.6% strong creation is made according to the Lower Franconian brewing method and brings a nice flavor and wonderful roasted aromas to the glass.
Adam Riese’s beery equivalent presents itself in a ruby-red bright chestnut brown and is crowned with a hand’s breadth of ivory-colored foam. Aroma and initial taste are dominated by roasted malt. The taste is also accompanied by notes of caramel, roasted nuts, freshly baked bread, candied dark fruit and a hint of dark chocolate.
