HOW IS BEER MADE?

From a grain
To a great glass

The brewing process, simply explained. Every brewer adds their own twist.

  1. 01

    Malt

    Grain is germinated and dried to produce malt.

  2. 02

    Milling

    The malted grains are crushed.

  3. 03

    Mashing

    Warm water is added. Enzymes turn starch into sugars.

  4. 04

    Lautering

    The sweet liquid, called wort, is separated from the grain.

  5. 05

    Boiling with hops

    Hops contribute bitterness and aroma, among other things.

  6. 06

    Cooling

    The wort is cooled before the yeast is added.

  7. 07

    Fermentation

    Yeast turns sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide.

  8. 08

    Maturation

    The beer is given time to develop its flavour.

  9. 09

    Cheers!

    A great glass of beer. Enjoy every sip.

Discover what you enjoy

01

Take a look

Colour, clarity and foam: what do you see in your glass?

02

Take in the aroma

Take a few short sniffs. Fruit, bread, herbs, coffee? Name what you recognise.

03

Take a sip

Let the beer move around your mouth. Sweet, bitter, sour? Light or full-bodied?

What lingers?

Notice the finish and take your time. You don't need to know any specialist terms.
