And what is special for this beer that dares to break molds?
In an increasingly open beer world to experiment, a creation arises that combines tradition and boldness in an intriguing way: a beer with a champagne character. Its name, quite proverbial, is a kind of bridge between cultures, flavors and techniques that until recently seemed irreconcilable. But how can a bottle of beer pretend to compete with a glass of foamy wine? The answer is simple: by its method of elaboration and its groundbreaking spirit.
The hidden side of innovation and controversy
Behind this fermented masterpiece there are clashes with traditional entities that see these creative adventures suspicion. The authority that regulates the denominations of origin in the world of wine, famous for shielding the champagne against any imitation, has launched measures against labels that intend to use terms such as ‘sparkling’ or ‘champagne’. However, for brewers who are on the crest of the wave of innovation, this is a recognition that the limits are made to break. The mastery is to reinterpret classic techniques with a touch of modern rebellion.
How is this wonder of the beer world manufactured?
Contrary to what many believe, this beer does not contain wine or wine yeasts. His heart is a strong Ale, elaborated with the traditional ingredients: pure water, barley at its maximum, aromatic hops and the beer yeast that we all know. But here comes the part that breaks schemes: after the initial fermentation, beer is bottled in considerable size bottles, with additional sugar and yeast, and is sealing hermetically – just as in the manufacture of champagne. The secondary fermentation process transforms this mixture into a foamy that keeps the essence of a beer, but with a passionate and refined bubble.
An artisan process with magic dyes
For months, bottles rest in a horizontal position, allowing yeasts to consume sugar, producing alcohol and carbon dioxide. After three months to a year, the time of ‘remuneration’ is time, where the bottles are slowly turned to the caucelen yeasts in the neck. Then, that part is freezing to get impurities in an ice shot, leaving the crystalline and pristine liquid. The last phase involves filling with a little more base beer, achieving the perfect enclosure with cork and capsule, and preparing this magnificent product to conquer palates fond of innovation and good taste.
More than a beer: a phenomenon of elegance and technique
Each bottle of Deus Brut des Fland is a work of art, the result of months of artisanal care and a carefully orchestrated technique. The history of its elaboration combines the precision of science with the passion of manual work that seeks to create more than a simple drink: a symbol of creativity and respect for beer roots, with a touch of sophistication that invites you to enjoy calmly and admire complexity in each sip.
Although there are still those who see in this creation an act of daring, there is no doubt that it reflects the ability of modern beer to expand its horizons, embrace new techniques and transcend traditional labels. Perhaps, in the not too distant future, these innovations will be the new standards, expanding the definition of what a beer of quality and unique character can be.
