As the city of good beer, Wroc\u0142aw is booming. We have triumphed at the biggest and most prestigious Craft Beer Competition in Poland.<\/p>\n And here are more awards and opinion-forming reviews:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We appreciate all awards. The higher consumers\u2019 expectations, the more craft is going to develop. The more people expect, the more they are aware of, the more they talk and share, the better for craft. We\u2019re 100% committed. Browar Stu Most\u00f3w was awarded the Gault&Millau toque for excellent foodpairing and designing flavours to match specific beers.<\/p>\n The end of year seems to be the best moment to say a few words about Concept, our newborn baby. Concept Stu Most\u00f3w shows our engagement in building taste awareness and developing beer culture. Concept Stu Most\u00f3w, a craft workshop located 30 meters away from the brewery where a baker, cheese maker and chef cooperate to produce beer pretzels, sour dough breads, mustards and vinegars. Browar Stu Most\u00f3w enhances their unique offer as beer, wort, malts and brewers grains are used in the production of pretzels, breads and mustards.<\/p>\n Concept is a place friendly for producers and farmers. It is where you can taste not only beer, but also sour dough bread, natural cheeses and cold meats. All products are produced locally and 100% handmade based on original recipes. We\u2019re also offering preserves. This project has become a source of inspiration for many. It will certainly shake up many mustard shelves in Wroc\u0142aw. We\u2019re also hoping to revive the tradition of having traditional pretzels with beer. More about the project at: https:\/\/100mostow.pl\/concept-stu-mostow\/<\/a><\/p>\n It\u2019s once in 250 years that an essential part of the city\u2019s history and identity is recreated. Our great effort has brought about great promotion for Poland, Wroc\u0142aw and Browar Stu Most\u00f3w. The debut may be considered as the event of the year.

As the first brewery in Poland, we brewed in cooperation with an American brewery Pizza Boy Brewing from Pennsylvania, winners of the silver medal at 2014 World Beer Cup 2014 in the experimental beer category. We\u2019ve decided on a legendary style and added apricots.<\/p>\n A historic moment. The first Polish-American collaboration. Browar Stu Most\u00f3w & Pizza Boy Brewing z Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n ART#6 Dinkelbier with carrots<\/strong>, March 2016. We\u2019re joining forces to spread knowledge about taste and flavours.

Another milestone; a collaborative brewing with the American Bristol Brewing Company. Berliner Weisse works as the foundation whereas oatmeal flakes and abundance of American and Australian hops added in the late and dry hopping methods give the beer its exceptional oatmeal, sourish and slightly bitter profile.<\/p>\n ART#9\u00a0 has won the bronze medal in the Speciality Beer category: Other Sour Ale at the 2016 Brussels Beer Challenge. The beer also won the title of the Debut of the Month according to PolskieMinibrowary, placed at the top of the Berliner Weisse ranking by Piktor at Il Piwo, and earned the name of Craft of the Month at the Polski Kraft application.

The first historic one took place in Bavaria, the other one in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve been invited by Camba Bavaria<\/strong> to the world\u2019s biggest hop growing region to brew outside WRCLW for the first time. Our visit has sparked off a debate about the freedom of brewing that Polish breweries enjoy. Contrary to Poland where there are no limits as to beer brewing, Bavaria faces the challenges of the 500-year-old Beer Purity Law, which bans using other spices than hops. It was introduced to ensure the quality of German beer. The meeting has inspired us to explore the topic of our competencies and developing hop fields in Poland. This is the reason why Hallertauer IPL \u2013 brewed in cooperation with Camba Bavaria\u00a0<\/strong>made its debut at the Lublin Craft Beer Expo. More information at:\u00a0https:\/\/100mostow.pl\/en\/blog\/2016\/11\/21\/hallertauer-ipl-collab\/<\/a><\/p>\n We\u2019ve brewed with Jopen Kerk in Haarlem near Amsterdam.<\/strong> Jopen is the world-class brewery and the most often bought Dutch craft beer worldwide. Established in 1992, Jopen has been one of the founders of the European craft revolution. When it comes to the idea of craft, we are definitely on the same wavelengths as the brewery\u2019s founders, Michel Ordeman and Lydia Zoetman. We met to start our collaboration project at their beautiful brewery JopenKerk. The modern brewery is equipped with state-of-the-art technological solutions. Being located in a historic building, Jopen combines traditional and new-wave approaches to create opportunities for craft beer. The brewery is of an urban character. Their aim is to recreate brewing traditions in Haarlem. Since the very beginning, they have focused on recreating native and regional styles. The aim of the meeting was to share experiences and familiarize the Dutch with Polish traditions. Our hosts noted the presence of our beers on their market. Our beers are available in Haarlem and well appreciated in the Netherlands. We\u2019ve been on offer in Bavaria, Berlin, and the USA. Our collaborative brewing with American breweries has done a lot to spread the word. Our aim was to brew a beer that would bring to mind Poland and that we could distribute on a wide range of markets. For now, the joint project will ensure the distribution of our beer to many European countries and in the USA. We\u2019ve agreed on the style: traditional, historic, and very classic. We\u2019ve designed the recipe. We brewed 6 beers in 3 days. The project will make foundations for the great promotion of Polish craft set for January 2017.

Our customer base has been expanding over: pubs, multitaps, restaurants and hotels. Everyone is doing a great job to develop our industry and offer. Brewing in Wroc\u0142aw with its Beer Geek Madness and Good Beer Festival feels like magic.<\/p>\n What an incredible team we\u2019ve got! We draw inspiration from various ideas to walk our path to success, which to us means building bridges among people, cities and countries. We are bringing together rich history and the potential the present world has on offer. We aim at showing the wonders that craft beer does. 4 medals and top4 of all times confirm high beer quality and the concept behind our business.<\/p>\n The awards and certificates won by the pub and Micha\u0142 Czekaj\u0142o, the chef of our kitchen, have opened up gates to collaboration. We\u2019re exceptionally well prepared to educate and build taste awareness. Concept Stu Most\u00f3w has had a great launch. It\u2019s wonderful team allows for developing beer culture and bringing together craft beer enthusiasts.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve been working hard promoting beer from WRCLW. This year we visited Craft Bier Fest Wien, Berlin Beer Week, and Brau Beviale. As for Polish events, we went to the leading beer festival from our home town: Wroc\u0142aw Good Beer Festival.<\/p>\n Exporting our beer has been very successful. We\u2019ve started to export our products to Germany and Czech Republic, highly demanding markets in many respects. This year we\u2019ve expanded our export over Austria, the Netherlands and Russia. Our greatest Christmas wish has been for our beer to be available in the United States. We\u2019ve landed the deal. Export begins in January 2017.<\/p>\n High quality is our constant priority. We\u2019ve been working hard to meet high standards beginning with the very first investment decisions. We\u2019re proud to have the first in Poland HopGun, or a licensed system for dry hopping. Beer is hopped equally throughout the tank while the hop aroma works to its maximum. Purchasing and importing the first in Poland HopGun is just the first stage of the planned investments. The bar has been set high: innovations and development. HopGun and big investment in 2017.<\/p>\nThe Best Imperial Stout in Poland!<\/h3>\n
