Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailDevil’s Peak Lager

Devil’s Peak Lager is lager as it should be. South Africa is a beer drinking nation – there’s no disputing that. But if we dig a bit deeper, it also becomes obvious that we are a lager drinking nation. For as long as anyone can remember, we’ve been been up to our collective noses in it. The problem is that most of it has been produced as an exercise in profit and not flavour. Big beer has drifted far from the origins of this traditional style. Lagering actually dates as far back as medieval times, where brewers would barrel ferment in the cooler temperatures of caves, but the advent of refrigeration in the late 19th century helped to perpetuate it to new levels of popularity. Consistently cool temperatures, along with a bottom fermenting yeast, yielded a clear, clean and long-lasting beer which now helps define the style. A style we feel is not being faithfully represented by what’s commercially available . . . until now. Devil’s Peak Brewing Company’s Lager has been created as an ode to the traditional lagers of Germany. Brewed with the famous noble Hallertauer Mittelfrüh, we have looked to the past to bring you the future of beer in South Africa. Made with 100% malt, we do not add sugar or adjuncts to cut corners and save cost. Simply put, the unwavering quality and passion you have come to expect from #DPBC means one simple thing.
