Krostitzer Bier

Post by Nobby Novice » Sat Oct 15, 2011 3:24 pm

This is a bit of a long shot, would anyone have a recipe to make this classic German Beer. Can anyone steer me in the right direction to find this recipe. I assume that most contributors to this site are English speaking and I would be unlikely to find German members on this forum.
I would love to be able to attempt to make this beer as it has a personal a meaning to me and my family. My late father worked there as a prisoner of war until 1945. krostitz is near Liepzeig and I was able to take my father back there with the co-operation of the Breuerei after the wall came down. Whilst there we both enjoyed the beer and it brought back many memories to my father.

Can we first confirm that you are talking about Ur-Krostitzer from Krostitz and not Köstritzer Schwarzbier from Bad Köstritz? People often confuse the two. If it is Ur-Krostitzer, as it probably is since you say near Leipzig, is it their Pils you want?

Thanks for the reply Invalid stout. Yes it is the Ur-Krostitier Brauererieu pils recipe that I would like.
Best regards
Nobby.
