Near Münster is Alverskirchen, the home of Kemker Kultuur. Here Jan and Nicole brew their extraordinary beers on a farm according to historical models. With original ingredients, wood barrel maturation and the use of wild yeasts, the brewery has quickly made a name for itself in both national and international connoisseur circles since its foundation in 2017. Craft Beer in the original sense - here everything is handmade.
Kemker's flagship is the Aoltbeer, in keeping with the tradition of the local beer culture. In other words: a pale top-fermented Alt (in contrast to the Düsseldorf Alt, the Altbier in the Münsterland region was always pale), fermented with wild yeasts and matured for a long time in wooden barrels. Then possibly a storage on fruits like plums or sloes. Within one year there are always several and different batches of the Aoltbeer to discover.
The beers in this blend matured on average for 19 months in red wine barrels. In this time the beer developed its fruity and wine-like character. Blend no. 09-2021 is mature, jammy and with vineous stonefruit notes.
