More information about Schoppe Bräu Brut X Ale
The right beer for festive occasions.
There are moments when it simply has to be something special. If you still don't want to do without beer in these situations, we recommend a Brut Ale. The Berlin brewery Schoppe has a Brut in its range that we particularly like. Brut Ales are fermented with champagne yeast, giving them a fine perlage and an acidity reminiscent of the noble sparkling wine. The brewers at Schoppe affectionately call their Brut Ale the bubbly of the street and there could be no better title for their work.
Schoppe's Brut X Ale is a top-fermented beer that has been cold-hopped with Hallertauer Blanc. The noble drop presents itself in a slightly cloudy golden hue in the glass and forms a handsome crown of firm, white foam. An unusual aroma of fine, light grapes paired with sour green apple, white pepper, pear and yeast entices you to take your first sip. This is dry, delicately yeasty and tastes of slightly tart light fruits. The Brut Ale strikes a great balance between pleasant sweetness, tangy acidity and hoppy tartness. The finish is light-footed and carries a refreshing citrus note.
A feather-light beer that tastes particularly good with Mediterranean cuisine. Grilled fish with a colorful summer salad, for example, complements the aroma of the beer wonderfully.

Schoppe brew
Fancy names have become part of the standard ABC of the modern craft beer brewer. And hey, it's legitimate to have your illustrious range represented by a unique name. The small Schoppe brewery from Berlin, however, shows that it's possible to be fancy and still get by without big Anglicisms and extravagant neologisms. Real beer instead of mass-produced goods Behind the simple name lies a true avant-gardist: Thorsten Schoppe caused a sensation in the beer world years ago and virtually helped lift the craft beer movement out of its cradle. At some point, the inspired brewer had had enough of large-scale brewing and turned to his craft roots and the original art of brewing. Kettle instead of computer was the motto that ultimately led to Thorsten starting his own thing. Since then, the humorous motto "hops, malt, and muscle grease" has applied, perfectly describing the small-scale...
