What is Slow Brewing? This important beer initiative appeals to beer connoisseurs throughout Europe who prefer special, outstanding beers of the best quality rather than an artificially created standard taste.
The toughest seal of quality for beer worldwide
Out of 7000 breweries across Europe, only 32 are certified as Slow Brewers - and there is a reason for this: it is the toughest seal of approval for beer in the world. Slow Brewing stands for the traditional, gentle production of beer, in which time is seen as a decisive factor for excellent taste.
The Slow Brewing seal of approval was founded in 2011 with the aim of supporting the preservation of beer diversity and the promotion of beer quality.
The most important criteria for obtaining the seal of approval are
- No brewing with increased original gravity
- No subsequent dilution with water, known as 'high gravity brewing'
- No accelerated fermentation and maturation processes as in mass production
The mastermind behind slow brewing is the brewer Dr. August Gresser. For the former master brewer of the Forst Brewery in South Tyrol, beer is both a science and a passion. The highest quality is close to his heart, which is why only the best beers and breweries pass the in-depth and extensive checks on the way to becoming a Slow Brewer.
The four Slow Brewers in Austria are
- Trumer Privatbrauerei in Salzburg
- Stiegl Brewery in Salzburg
- Hirt private brewery in Carinthia
- Braucommune in Freistadt, Upper Austria
