Hopfenweisse, 7.5%

Frampton Brasse

German white beer and hops, it will offer you vineyard notes but especially cloves, spices present in the classic curry. The aromas of white wine brought by cold hops will suggest the notes of a white wine which, conventionally, would accompany the dish wonderfully. Beer with a soft texture, it will support that of the dish. Its effervescence will bring a digestible aspect. German and Indian dish beer? We like the mixture of cultures! See the product
