To add another level to your Export Inception: In the Dutch province of Limburg a new beer style popped up in the mid century, it was called Dort (from Dortmunder Export) it is a heavier style blonde Lager around 6,5-7,7%. The only remaining one is this one from Alfa (nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfa_Krachtig_Dort) as Gulpener stopped making theirs (nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulpener_Dort).
I remember us speaking on that during our talk. I really wanted to get out there and try it but I've been ina work crunch the past six months and haven't had any time to go exploring. Hopefully soon though!
Man, it would be wonderful if craft brewers would bring back well documented but defunct styles like the Vienna Export Lager... but instead we'll just get another Hazy IPA or Pastry Stout. Gotta give the people what they want, I suppose. It makes me wish I had the skills and resources to homebrew. I'd love to do something like a beer version of one of my favorite youtube channels "Tasting History with Max Miller", where he recreates historical recipes and talks about history. Beer History is fascinating, that's why I watch your channel when the videos go up.
I have been toying around with a similar idea for my channel but I just don't have time to brew like I use to. Hopefully when my life mellows out a bit I can try to brew some historical beers and get a taste for em!
This is one style I would like to explore at source. Only had one which was a local brewery's interpretation of it (which I am not so sure how accurate it is). Based on that one, I had it sort of placed mentally as something of a "lighter" version of a marzen. I once brewed the style based on the recipe in "Brewing Classic Styles", but my brewing skills at the time weren't that great. Cheers!
I live just a 10 minute walk away from the Bergmann brewery in Dortmund and I love the beer. Best beer in the world! Where did you get your bottle from?
@@LifeIsBrewtiful oh that’s quiet a journey just for beer haha I hope it was worth it! Have you tried the factory tour? It’s an really cool experience and you better make sure to take a taxi ride home afterwards 😂
Honestly I dont think I tried it. I had a lot of beers while in the area but that one doesn't ring a bell. If you recommend it I will have to give it a try!

@@LifeIsBrewtiful It will get there eventually. Life... finds a way!

Love these historical deep dives.
Thank you! I'm cooking up a fresh batch of new ones!

From the Bergmann Brewery in Dortmund! Haha. I live near Frankfurt and drove up for the weekend to drink beers and explore

Speaking of Dortmund, what do you think of Brinkhoff's No.1?
Me and a few friends enjoy it a lot.

Vienna is Austria not Germany..
Agreed. That's why I said Germanic. The Germanic People's spread mutch further than the borders of modern day Germany.
