Hoppenbier | Jopen
ABV: 6.8%
IBU: 40
Style: Historical Beer - Other
Actively Produced
Description: Jopen Hoppenbier is the beer we started our brewery with (almost) 16 years ago. It is brewed according to the bierkeur (city recipe) from 1501 and was the first beer brewed with hops instead of gruit (herbs). The beer is brewed with malted barley, malted wheat and oats and has a very mellow malty taste and a hoppy finish. It is the predecessor of many Belgian beers, due to the fact that is was sold a lot in Belgium during the Middle Ages. Silver medal winner at the New Zealand Brew awards in 2009. Gold medal at the European Beerstar Competition in 2011.
