Basic info

Name	Korenwolf Wheat Beer
Country	Netherlands
Bottle size	0.5 l.
Alc vol	5 %
Beer Style	Wheat
Beer name means	Korenwolf was inspired by the Belgian Wit style, but has its own twists. Its name, Korenwolf, means hamster. The notion of dubbing as a "corn wolf" an animal as small as this caged household pet is typical of the country. (Thanks Alex) Gulpener is the name of the brewery, the beer is named after a hamster-like rodent (depicted on the bottle). Tis rodent is almost extinct in the Netherlands, and therfore it's illegal to construct buildings in areas where these animals live. These little critters have made national news by stopping some companies' building plans. The Gulpener brewery where just than looking for a name for their new wheat-based beer (witbeer or white-beer, like Hoegaarden or Wieckse Witte) and like that the funny little animal got it's face on a beer bottle... (Thanks Has) Gulpener is named after Gulpen,. Gulpen is a small town in the very south of The Netherlands in the province of Limburg. (Thanks Arjen) Tell us more
