Skåne Micro Brewery Tour - Day 2

Day two of our (short) micro tour of micro breweries of Skåne is soon over.


It has been a good day, following the brewer of Stockeboda Gårdsbryggeri when he produced a batch of their Single Malt beer.


The fact that he produced a regular batch, not simply talked about how to do it, or let us experiment away with our own ideas meant that I really learned a lot today about regular beer production on a semi-small scale. The fact that we followed him a whole day, from the grinding of the malt to the cleaning of the vats and tools after the batch was finished also gave a good feeling for the whole process.


Afterwards we took part of the buffé that Stockeboda serves every Wednesday and tried most of the brewery's beers, filling out our test protocolls and figuring out what we really felt about them.


I'll see if I can manage to get the results up here separatelly, but overall the beers ended up in the range of 6-7 on a scale of 10 which is OK for such a new brewer, but they had far too much carbonate which made them hard to serve and a general citric tone of unpasteurized beer that got a bit tiring after a while.
