"We were very excited when we were finally able to open the new barrels and taste the new single malt whisky," says Moritz von Twickel. Together with the Heimatverein Bad Wünnenberg e.V., the managing director of the Brewery Westheim is now looking forward to the Westheim Beer Whisky 2021.

Three years matured the beer whisky in French oak barrels. For the mash, as with previous bottlings, the finest brewing and specialty malts were used. These, together with the oak barrels, provide the unique flavor of the alcohol-intensive whiskey brew. This time it was barrels in which previously stored a full-bodied Bordeaux. You can taste it: the bright golden beer whisky delights with a soft body as well as pleasant wood aroma with notes of honey and a nice greeting from the red wine.

Exceptional whisky enjoyment
"We attach great importance to craft brewing specialties of excellent quality," brewmaster Jörg Tolzmann tells us. "To achieve this, we carefully select the raw materials and take a lot of time in the brewhouse for traditional brewing processes." The Klinke family from the local heritage association was able to build on this work during distillation. The result is an all-around exceptional cask whiskey with an alcohol content of around 40 percent.

Already for the third time
"This is already the third edition of the Westheimer Bierwhisky and it certainly won't be the last," reveals Ilse Klinke, chairwoman of the Bad Wünnenberg Heimatverein. Its mission is to preserve regional culture and cultural assets. A beer whiskey based on local beer specialties fits in perfectly.

Now available
Who could acquire one of the pleasure coupons available in the apron, can redeem this now against its bottle. The Westheimer Bierwhisky 2021 is available at the Westheimer Brauwelt on the B7 in the Marsberg district (opening hours) and at the Bad Wünnenberger Speicher, always on Sundays in April from 11 am to 2 pm.
