More information about GraniteBock Most beers, no matter how different their taste, go through roughly the same brewing process and are made from the same ingredients. Their diversity is due to the skill of the brewers and the different compositions of hops and malt. The granite bock from the Hofstetten brewery also passes through the mash kettle, lauter tun, wort kettle, whirlpool, fermentation and storage tank before it is bottled. Nevertheless, there are a few special intermediate steps on the way from the mash tun to bottling. For one thing, the fine bock beer is not fermented in today’s standard stainless steel tanks, but in 120-year-old granite vats. The special taste and soft caramel sweetness are created by heating granite blocks in a wood fire and then placing them in the beer. The sugar in the beer wort caramelizes on the hot stone and forms an incomparable taste.Granitbock is bottled in handy 0.33 l bottles and in a larger format. The strikingly shaped large bottle is finished with a wax seal and is particularly suitable if you want to keep the beer at home. Due to its alcohol content of 7.3% and its style, the bock is ideal for maturing in your own cellar for a few more years. However, you can also open the large bottle for the next festive occasion and share the fine drop with your friends!
