Style: Fruit Beer
Brewed by: Taiwan Head Brewers (Taiwan)
ABV: 6.5% / IBU: 10
“Chunfen” means “Mid Spring” and marks the midway point of the spring and is the growing season for many animals and plants on the planet, including plums that have been used for making plum wine in Asia for centuries. We, as brewers, feel it is our responsibility to make a great beer with this beautiful gift from Mother Earth.
To brew Chunfen Taiwan Plum Ale, we blend wart with plum wine made with locally-grown green plums and ferment it with champagne yeast to create a sparkling wine- like ale. This beer is refreshing and full of fruity and perfumy plum aroma and flavors, and represents what a perfect spring should taste like.

啤酒頭 春分 梅子啤酒
「春分 」是春天走到中途,日夜等長的節氣。「一候玄鳥至;二候雷乃發聲;三候始電。」便說春分節氣分為三候,燕子從南北返,再來下雨伴隨雷鳴,而後陽光灑落大地。
啤酒頭的「春分」啤酒有兩位主角:梅子與麥芽。使用春天產的台灣青梅製酒,並以香檳酵母發酵麥汁,兩者角色各半混釀而成。「春分」有著豐盈果香與梅子清甜,這是走向春天途中,大地所回應的甜美禮物。
