Craft beer in its purest form is what Sebastian Sauer, the head behind Freigeist Bierkultur, produces. Experts say Sebastian was one of the first craft beer brewers in Germany. True or not, he is a veteran of the craft beer scene and an expert who is second to none. It is no coincidence that his beers are more popular than any other German beer in the USA, the home of craft beer.
Freigeist Bierkultur is conquering the craft beer world by rescuing old, long-forgotten beer styles. Sebastian reads up on the subject until he has discovered all the ingredients of the original recipe and the intricacies and secrets of the old brewing style. With this knowledge, he then considers how the beer would be brewed today and which ingredients would be used. He doesn't want to bring old chestnuts from grandma's handbag to light, but rather transport the beers of the past into the present with skill and expertise. His beers are therefore not pure reproductions of old recipes, but rather modern reissues. With this concept, the brewery has made a good name for itself in the craft beer scene and attracted international attention. No wonder, because their classics such as the Eisbock Dr. Frost , the fruity Weizenbock Tropicator or their Mexican Standoff Stout are sophisticated beer compositions that leave you tasting like more.
As the name suggests, Sebastian is a free spirit. This is not only reflected in the title of his brewing project, his beers also live up to the motto. He places great value on brewing good beer, the rest is secondary. The fact that he does not run his own brewery, but travels Germany and the world as a gypsy brewer, ensures productive exchanges between fellow brewers and gives him enough scope to indulge in the joy of experimentation. We don't care where the hop artist does his work, the main thing is that he continues to produce such fabulous beers as the Kremlin Gremlin . However, it is not only the constant change of brewery that provides variety, but also the ingredients that go into the kettle. Sometimes they do not comply with the purity law at all. Never mind, we say, and enjoy a cool Wolichu Wachu , which contains not only hops, malt and water, but also cold-brewed coffee. Cheers!
