Everything sits in one family — which makes the comparison below the interesting part. It isn't what they brew that sets them apart, but how.

How they compare
Each beer measured against others of its own style, then averaged across the range. Compared with the wider catalogue across breweries making similar styles.

Gilde Brauerei's beers land close to what is typical for the styles they brew. The character is in the styles they choose and how consistently they hit them — not in standing apart from the field.
