More information about Uncle Jim New England IPA
Jim Barnes is a person you have to know: The New Yorker came to us a few years ago and fell head over heels in love with the brewery. Without further ado, he decided to start an apprenticeship with us and has been part of the Hertl family ever since. But that's not all: at 55, Jimmy is also the oldest apprentice in Germany!
We are celebrating Jim, his courage to make new beginnings and his always sunny disposition with a delicious New England IPA called Uncle Jim. This drinkable beer has 6.0% vol. and is brewed with the aromatic hop varieties Amarillo BBC, Citra BBC and Bru-1 BBC.
In addition to the green gold, we use the holy trinity of barley, wheat and oat malt. This grain roundel ensures an incomparably creamy mouthfeel and gives the beer its stately stature.
Uncle Jim is a densely cloudy beer in bright gold with a tropical, fruity character and is just as much fun to drink as our Jimmy!

Brewery Hertl
Brewmaster with heart and soul in the smallest brewery in Franconia - David Hertl is currently Germany's youngest brewmaster and beer sommelier, as well as a budding wine sommelier. At the age of 22, he completed his master craftsman training before subsequently supplementing his further training as a beer sommelier on a part-time basis. In 2013, he went into business for himself and opened his own brewery, Braumanufaktur. He discovered his passionate interest in brewing as a teenager. His first beer experiments in his mother's kitchen led to the former pigsty on his parents' farm being converted into a miniature brewery. Today, the charismatic young brewer already produces around 80 hectoliters of the finest beer on 80 square meters, and the trend is rising: a new brewhouse and further equipment are to boost production strongly, as demand for David Hertl's barley juice specialties...
