Common descriptors are
Our latest venture into world brewing history is an oak-smoked wheat ale, named for the town of Grodzisk (aka “Grätz”) in western Poland. Brewed regionally since the Middle Ages, but nearly forgotten today, these smoky, hoppy, wheat ales are full flavored yet light bodied. We brewed with 100% oak-smoked wheat and called on the experts at Gorst Valley Hops to help re-create the character of archaeic Polish hops. Na zdrowie!
