In this hotel, in addition to the brewing fermentations, we also venture into other fermentations. We haven’t produced penicillin from yeast yet, but with time we will. A lot of bread has already been made (without ever letting it spoil), garlic fermented in honey, sauerkraut, kimchi, onions and we even fermented the tomatoes (the cherryContinue reading “Fermented Peach Golden Sour”

Lichtenhainer with Grapes and Lime
Lichtenstein, Lichtenhainer and Lichtsteiner. For us these names all sound the same but only one remains in memory. Lichtenhainer, because it’s beer. This was an easy guess. We’ve started to think that beer geeks come up with “historical” styles just to validate stupid ideas that someone had. They should be considered “anecdotal” styles since whenContinue reading “Lichtenhainer with Grapes and Lime”
Kveik Grape IPA
Where can Portugal improve and differentiate itself? Taking advantage of the wide resources it has. In our beer world, given the whole tradition surrounding wine, it seems strange how little importance, so far, breweries give to this opportunity, especially when compared to our fellow Italians. Be it barrels, yeast, or in this case, grapes. GrapesContinue reading “Kveik Grape IPA”
Kveik Hazy Pastry Sour
Haze boyz, haze boyz, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, when they come for you? The pastry trend rolled out in the beer world and not even sour beer is safe from this. And if you can’t beat them, join them. It’s a strange day today since we have mixed feelings regarding this concept, butContinue reading “Kveik Hazy Pastry Sour”

Mead, Cider, Bread, Pickles, Tepache, Kombucha, and so on.Unlike beer, which has a lot of information produced and easily available, there wasn’t that muchContinue reading “Tepache Sour Ale”

Witbier Smoked Lemmons
We should be thankful to Pierre Celis for still having Witbiers on the market. As if it was not enough to guarantee the preservation of a beer from the Monks that was in decline, by creating Hoegaarden, he still emigrated to the USA to found Celis Brewery, repeating the success formula on the other sideContinue reading “Witbier Smoked Lemmons”
