CLASSIC PRODUCTION
At Aukštaitijos Bravorai, we produce beer according to the classic technology using pure water, malt, hops, and yeast. Only what’s real and time-tested
Grinding and mixing of malt
Grinding
The malt is mixed with water that is intended for brewing beer, the boiled blend is called mash. Then the filtration of mash takes place, where the liquid part of the mash (must) is separated.
Boiling
Boiling
The filtered must is boiled for 2 hours. When hops are added, the must gets a bitterness and its true aroma.
Open fermentation
Open fermentation
At this point of production, beer yeast is added. Depending on the type of beer, it ferments for 5 to 12 days.
Ageing
Ageing
Green beer is aged in tanks. The taste, smell, colour develops, and the bitterness and aroma of hops are become evident. Ageing lasts from 21 to 60 days, after which the beer acquires the taste and smell characteristic of only a particular beer. Each type of beer is boiled and aged separately. The beer is not diluted or mixed with each other. No added ingredients are included in the beer.
