We have turned back the clock and revived the German tradition of distilling beer. pür·spirits introduces bierbrand, an old-school German distillation of craft-brewed Märzen beer that is aged in chestnut casks. This rare and unique spirit is a graceful cousin of whisky yet rightly occupies a category all its own. The secret to distilling pür·geist bierbrand lies in our fine beer, brewed according to the German Reinheitsgebot, and generations of experience! Exceptional quality is guaranteed by excluding anything but 4 ingredients: malted barley, hops, yeast, and alpine spring water. In contrast to commercially mass produced liquors, pür·geist bierbrand is small batch distilled in traditional copper pot stills to extract all the beer’s nuances. New barrels impart a luminous golden color and add chestnut notes to the bierbrand’s fine maltiness. Delicious served straight at room temperature or as a beer lover’s twist to a more traditional Manhattan.

»The Bitter Truth – Pimento Dram« is based on selected pimento/allspice (also called jamaicapepper) and the finest Jamaican rum. English explorers coined the term allspice because the berry seemed to embody the flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg and clove all at once. On the Caribbean island of Jamaica, this distinctive aromatic liqueur has been produced for generations by macerating allspice in rum.

»The Bitter Truth – E**X**R« is a herbal liqueur that blurs the lines of conventional wisdom. Firmly rooted in the traditions of both classic sweet vermouths and alpine digestive tonics. Enjoy E**X**R in a pre-dinner Manhattan or Negroni or enjoy it neat after a rich meal to aid digestion. It’s as delicate as the finest vermouths with an alcohol content that allows it to defy oxidation and the need for refrigeration. It’s thoroughly intriguing and the most astounding new addition to the cocktailian arsenal.
