Family business. Brewery and cider house.
PIONERPRODUKT.by is studying the production of natural beer and cider at Knightberg Brewery, one of the oldest St. Petersburg breweries.
It's amazing how we at PIONERPRODUKT.BY unite different people from different businesses!

Elena Tyukina, the owner of the brewery, decided to produce cider a few years ago, started looking for information on the Russian-language Internet and then got on our channel and portal, and where else!
Elena gave us a tour of the family brewery, we talked about how natural beer is made, found out how long it takes to brew it.
And if when brewing beer, the equipment can be wrapped ten times a year, then if you make cider, then the same equipment will be occupied for at least a year!

We talked about malt, malting and malting.
A malthouse is a place where grain is prepared for malting. In the malt house, the malting process is carried out - the germination of grain (mainly barley, wheat) with subsequent drying.
Of course, we also talked about hops, and if in RUSSIA brewing barley is quite successfully grown, from which malt is actually prepared, then with hops everything is not so rosy. There are few domestic hops of decent quality. Although earlier the Republic of Chuvashia was considered the birthplace of hops.
And at the end of our tour, of course, we tasted beer, but this was left behind the scenes.
