Grätzer (Signature Series) | Choc Beer Company (Pete's Place)
ABV: 4.0%
Style: Grätzer / Grodziskie
Actively Produced
Description: Traditionally the Grätzer style was brewed with 100% oak smoked wheat malt and a Polish yeast. The unavailability of these ingredients have created major obstacles for any commercial brewer interested in bring back Gratzer. Undeterred by these challenges we decided to recreate this style. After considering smoking wheat malt in Krebs, we were able to convince Weyermann, our malt supplier, to smoke the malt. Once the malt was secured our attention turned to sourcing yeast. We could have used a readily available yeast strain but we wanted to recreate a historically accurate Gratzer. With that in mind a member of our team traveled to Poland to secure the proper yeast. The resulting combination of wheat and oak smoke is very unique. It is a beer that every serious enthusiast should experience when Signature Gratzer hits stores in Oklahoma and Western Arkansas in late January. As always with the annual Signature releases there is a limited quantity. Once the beer is gone there will be no more until next year!
