Drunkelweizen

Country: USA
Genre: Drunken Folk Metal
Founded: 2024

The German Purity Law, or Reinheitsgebot, limited beer to the inclusion of water, barley, and hops. Here in the Pacific Northwest, we do things a bit differently. Fermented heavy metal aged in oak barrels with notes of classical inspiration, Drunkelweizen stumbles forth with our blend of Drunken Folk Metal!

The debut album, Pioneers of Alcohol, is an ode to those in history whose life was ever entwined with the godly nectar, alcohol. From legendary poet to notorious outlaw turned folk hero, spectacular miracles or a death that coined an unfortunate phrase, these songs are an homage to the legacy they brewed. Each track tells the glorious tale of one such great mind and culminates in the title track. The final songs are offered in tribute to those we did not recount, and fueled by their memory and more than a few drinks of our own.

We invite you to lift up your drinking apparatus of choice (whether glass, stein, horn, or skull of thine fallen enemy) and join us in a toast to those that paved the way and all that the future has in store.
