Stauder

🌍 Germany · Dampfbier · One of 2 Dampfbiers in hopIQ

A revival brew: Stauder now brews to the recipes of the defunct Borbecker Dampfbierbrauerei, which closed in 1969. Drinkable-elegant, harmoniously structured, no modernist ambition — this beer is a Gründerzeit witness put back on the grid. Drinking it means being reminded of a neighborhood that once had a beer culture.
