Mark your calendars as we host an unforgettable Meet The Makers session with Sebastian Sauer, co-founder and head brewer of Freigeist Bierkultur.

An Evening with Craft Beer Royalty

Sebastian Sauer is not just the creative force behind Freigeist's groundbreaking brews; he's a global beer ambassador dedicated to resurrecting forgotten beer styles. His pioneering efforts have propelled Freigeist onto the world stage, earning Ottekolong Kölsch a spot among the 100 Best Beers in the World by Men's Journal magazine in 2014.

Freigeist: Where Tradition Meets Rebellion

Freigeist epitomizes the spirit of innovation within the framework of traditional German brewing. Sebastian's approach to beer making challenges conventions while paying homage to the rich, storied history of German ales and lagers.

The Ottekolong Connection

Our esteemed Beer Director, Emily Larkin Brown, first discovered her passion for craft beer through Freigeist's Ottekolong Kölsch right here at the Old Rabbit Club. This unfiltered, hop-rich Kölsch transcended its traditional roots to become a symbol of craft excellence and innovation, inspiring Emily's journey into the world of beer curation and direction. Her story is a testament to the transformative power of great beer and the enduring legacy of Freigeist's brews.

This special edition of Meet The Makers is not only a chance to sample some of the most intriguing beers from Freigeist's repertoire but also an opportunity to hear firsthand from Sebastian Sauer about the art, science, and passion that go into creating exceptional craft beer.
