What’s old is new, as brewers are starting to look further into the past to both foster their latest innovations and honor a practice that’s thousands of years old (it dates back to 3,400 B.C.). Recreating ale styles once thought lost to history presents quite the technical challenge, though, with projects often demanding old-world brewing methods, extinct ingredients, and, if done correctly, scholarly levels of historical research. Now, beer fans are benefiting off that sweat equity with rare East German porters, a pils style popular before WWII, and an IPA built on the high seas.
Circle Brewing Co.
Archetype Historical IPA
To recreate the strong pale ales exported by Britain to India in the 18th century, co-founder Ben Sabel and head brewer Taylor Lapour aged this malty brew in wood barrels for more than three months to simulate a prolonged boat journey. Each batch was also inoculated with a wild yeast that would have accumulated naturally over the course of one of those lengthy voyages.
Live Oak Brewing Company
Pre-war Pils
This flavorful American lager follows a recipe popular before Prohibition’s onset, employing a partial corn grit mash for a beer that’s as crisp and crushable now as it was in 1912. On a recent release, select six-packs even came with a branded church key to pop the punch-top lid, just like gramps used to.
Jester King Brewery
Pattinson Porter
On his visit to Jester King last year, renowned beer historian Ron Pattinson brought with him a recipe for an early 20th-century sour porter from East Germany. In his interpretation of this nearly forgotten libation, co-founder Jeffrey Stuffings uses five types of hops and the brewery’s signature mixed culture, which contains several strains of Brettanomyces.
