Counterflow brewery… because in a time when everyone seems to want to brew IPAs, hazy or not, I feel like I’m going against the flow, brewing Saison, Wit, Kolsch and other traditional European inspired ales.
I'm from Portugal and I've visited Germany several times. I fear I haven't had many of those "authentic" lagers you talk about, but the Hefeweizen... they were absurdly good. I buy them in Portugal often, and I like them, but man, having them on tap in Bavaria is a whole different level...
A saison inspired ale, mostly pilsner malt with a touch of wheat, a blend of two yeast strains, crushed coriander seed, orange zest and a couple cardamom pods... fermenting at 20,5ºC as I write...
