Gruthaus Stadtbier Münster 1480 is a masterful historical recreation of a Münster-style Grutbier, offering a rustic and deeply layered sensory experience. A complex multi-grain grist of Barley Malt, Wheat, Spelt Malt, and Oats creates a soft, bready foundation with a touch of grainy sweetness. The profile is defined by its botanical complexity, where the resinous, balsamic notes of Bog Myrtle weave through the gin-like evergreen of Juniper and the earthy, savory spice of Caraway. This herbal medley provides a unique, non-hop bitterness that balances the smooth, creamy textures of the ancient grains, resulting in a balanced, evocative, and highly drinkable Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer.
Appearance.SRM 6–9; deep gold to amber with a persistent, creamy off-white head that leaves moderate lacing. Notable haze is present due to the high proportions of Wheat, Spelt, and Oats.
Aroma.Moderate to high intensity herbal bouquet. Distinctive resinous and sweet gale notes from Bog Myrtle dominate, followed by the piney, woody scent of Juniper and a subtle, rye-bread-like caraway spice. The malt provides a background of fresh bread and raw grain. Hop aroma is very low, allowing the botanicals to lead.
Taste.An initial impression of bready, rustic malt sweetness from the multi-grain bill. The mid-palate is characterized by a complex herbal interplay: resinous Bog Myrtle, peppery Caraway, and a cool, botanical Juniper finish. Bitterness is low to moderate, derived more from the herbs than hops. The finish is clean and slightly dry with a lingering herbal aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a characteristic creaminess and soft texture provided by the Oats and Spelt. Carbonation is moderate. No significant alcohol warmth; very low astringency despite the herbal additions.
