Flensburger Dunkel from Germany

他のビールが王冠に変更した中、頑なにスウィングトップ式にこだわるフレンスブルガーは、ドイツ南部フレンスブルグで、大手の傘下に入ることなく、今も創業者ファミリーで経営される地ビールです。冷蔵技術が発達する以前は、冬季に凍った湖の氷を砕いて地下の貯蔵庫に保管して利用されましたが、この醸造所は今も、スカンジナビアから古代氷由来の水を仕入れて、よい水を使用してビール造りをしています。

Flensburger Brauerei, which has taken up swing-top style unlike another brewery change to the cap of beer bottle, is a brewery located in Flensburg in the Bundesland of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. It is one of the last country-wide operating breweries not being part of a larger brewery group. The company was founded by 5 citizens of Flensburg and today it is still mainly held by the founder families Petersen and Dethleffsen. 
Before modern refrigeration, the brewery used to chop blocks of ice from frozen lakes in the winter and bring the blocks back to the brewery to keep their underground storage facilities cool in summer. the brewery is still operating its own water well, which is supplied by an underground vein of very old ice age melting water coming from Scandinavia.
