With Grevensteiner, Brauerei C & A Veltins bring the traditional craft of brewing back to life. Inspired by Carl and Anton Veltins' original 1890 Grevensteiner, this unfiltered country beer is mild, creamy and malty with a touch of apple and pear.
Tasting notes
Mild with hints of nuts and toasted bitterness, creamy, bready
Aroma
Caramel, honey, roasted almonds and fresh fruity apple notes
At the turn of the century, twin brothers Carl and Anton Veltins were the second generation to manage the then, still small Grevensteiner Brewery. With careful management and a lot of love for brewing, they created Grevensteiner beer in the 1890s – it was known and loved far beyond their local region. Now, in tribute to the brother's traditional approach, Brauerei C & A Veltins have crafted 'Grevensteiner Original'. Naturally cloudy, Grevensteiner Original is a light Landbier (country beer). Employing traditional brewing processes, historical malt varieties and soft spring water, this is a rich, creamy, full flavoured beer. Caramel aromas dominate with a fresh apple note, while the taste is mild with hints of nuts and toasted bitterness.
