More information about Quacksalbers whisky mead barrel matured
The Quacksalber whisky mead is a real border crosser: produced in the Viking country of Schleswig-Holstein and matured in whisky casks from the Danish distillery Stauning, it delivers aromas of honey, whisky, wood and light smoke, which combine to create an unmistakably delicious potion. Each batch is unmistakable and unique.
Under the Quacksalber banner, the Wacken brewery produces exquisite and enjoyable tinctures, elixirs, liqueurs and spirits.
The Quacksalber Whisky Mead is only produced in very small, limited batches in a natural and artisanal way. The mead is neither highly filtered nor pasteurized. Despite the long storage in whisky barrels and the already high alcohol content, final fermentation may still occur at higher temperatures in the bottle.
This is generally not a problem, but can lead to slight moussing and a slight cloudiness. We recommend cool storage and prompt consumption after opening.

Our small craft beer brewery was founded at the beginning of 2016 by three beer enthusiasts in the heart of Wacken in Schleswig-Holstein. After months of planning and seemingly endless conversion work on a former supermarket, the time had finally come in mid-June: the brewing equipment was set up. Since then we have a so-called three-vessel brewhouse with a capacity of 20hl per brew, i.e. a yield of 2000 liters per brewing process. The beer is fermented and stored in five stainless steel tanks with a total capacity of 220hl. In addition, we have decided to operate our own bottling plant in order to be as...
