IYKYK. RARE AF.
Saaz is a blend of younger and older wild ales, that fermented and aged for 8 months up to 2,5 year. The beer was dryhopped for over 6 months in an oak foeder with Czech Saaz hops. In the nose you will come across a grassy, herbal smell which is characteristic of Saaz. Flowers like chamomile and roses, fresh peaches, some funk and hay are also found in the aroma. In taste you will experience a slightly bitterness from the hops, a balanced sourness with a fairly dry finish which can remind you of a natural cider.
Tommie Sjef is a beer blendery from Den Helder, the Netherlands. We make wild ales which are fermented and aged in wooden barrels. All our beers are fermented using our own wild yeast and bacteria culture. This gives the beer, after extensive ageing — 1,5 up to 4 years — in oak barrels, its typical slightly sour taste, and eccentric aromas. A bottle of Tommie Sjef often contains a blend of beers originating from a selection of barrels, differing in age. Every barrel develops differently, each showing its unique characteristics. It is the art of blending to add balance, depth and joy.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
