Thanks Stephen!

Beer Details
*******************************
Style: Zoigl
Container: 16oz Can
Notes: Late last year Goldfinger Brewing Company (Downers Grove, IL) debuted an exciting collaborative brewing project called American Zoigl. It started as a pair of beers made with our mutual lager buds Live Oak Brewing Company (Austin, TX) and continued on with the esteemed brewers Urban Chestnut Brewing Company (St. Louis, MO). The project has made its way to Salem, CT and this week we’re very proud to share our American Zoigl.

Following the established framework for the beer while bringing our own approach, we used a local heirloom corn variety (Wapsie Valley) in a cereal mash, barley from Valley Malt, whole leaf Crystal hops and American-grown Saaz hops. Marrying old and new world lager brewing methods, there’s a depth of flavor and character we just love in this beer – subtle corn sweetness, a mellow/rounded malt character and noble-like hops with a zippy, citrus side.

It’s a distinctly American reinterpretation of the Zoigl beers of the Oberpfalz region of Germany. Dating back to the Middle Ages, Zoigl beer is less of a specific style and more significantly, a set of traditions centered around communal brewing and drinking. Those traditions are carried on today in five towns where a central, community owned and operated brewery in each town produces wort for a handful of families to bring home to their cellars for fermentation, conditioning and eventually service.
