Organic mixed beer drink – a marriage of hops and hemp.
Getränkepreise zzgl. Pfand
With its Cannabis Club Brew, which is fully in line with the international trend, the Weissenohe Monastery Brewery, in collaboration with Hemp and Nature, offers both the creative beer drinker and the hemp lover a refreshing drink that, in its pleasantly rounded style, conveys the flowery, lemony and bitter hemp flower aroma to enrich the taste of the beer. Knowledge of the ancient cultivated plant hemp is being revived today and hemp is making a comeback in the agricultural sector. This rediscovery of the hemp plant as an “egg-laying wool-milk sow” could be described as a green hope, as hemp covers a wide range of users in its variety of uses and its ecological significance.
The Weissenohe monastery brewery gives its supplier organic farmers the opportunity to market hemp products in their hemp beer in order to promote and stabilize the cultivation of the unique crop plant hemp and thus also organic farming. Prior to the enactment of the Purity Law in 1516, brewing often involved the use of house-specific herbal mixtures, known as “gruit”, to bitter and flavor the beer. In some countries, the tradition of brewing with herbs has been preserved. Hemp was already a widespread crop at that time and was certainly also used to bitter beers in “Kruut/Gruit” due to its bitterness.
As the share of trendy drinks in overall beverage consumption continues to increase, Cannabis Club Sud will certainly also find its fans as a mixed beer drink.
Raw materials: Vienna type malt, blended with Pilsen type malt. We prefer to use lighter malt blends as we like to achieve a light color through intensive mashing (boiling the malt-water mixture) and not through higher roasted malts, which often have an unpleasantly bitter roasted aroma.
Only the finest Bioland aroma hops from the Hersbruck growing region are used in our hemp beer. A hemp beer also requires an appropriate amount of hops to round off the flavor and for the brewing process. This is somewhat less than in a “normal” beer, as the hemp already has a certain bitterness. Our brewing water comes from the brewery’s own controlled spring. We are in the fortunate position of being able to process the water from these springs, the composition of which (e.g. very calcareous) corresponds to our landscape (Franconian Switzerland) and its geology. The quality of the water (the nitrate levels are even below the requirements of the organic processing guidelines of max. 25 mg / ltr.) makes it possible for us to brew our beers with “active” spring water and not have to pump up “dead” water from great depths. We prefer to use organically grown hemp. This almost THC-free fiber hemp is used as an essential oil during the brewing process.
