Your Hirt Brewing Day Experience
You’ll begin with a compact introduction to the essential ingredients and the wide variety of Austrian beer styles. Then it’s straight into the action: you’ll take part in the full brewing process – from mashing in to the hop addition.
Between each stage, there’s time to dive deeper during breaks, including a brewery tour, a beer tasting, and a sensory workshop. After lautering, the wort is boiled and finished with carefully selected hops.
Brew your very own beer.
While the wort is boiling, take a break and enjoy a fine lunch in the Hirt brewery cellar. Then it’s back to brewing: the cooled wort is filled into fermentation tanks, and with the addition of yeast, the process is brought to its final, decisive step.
As a memento of this special day, every participant takes home a 12-pack (0.33 l) of their favorite Hirter beer to enjoy later.
