Valmiermuiža’s landlord once thought to himself, “If the French can make world famous Calvados from Normandy cider, then we can make an equally fine burned beer in Valmiermuiža from Valmiermuiža beer.” To fulfil this vision, a globally-renowned German small kiln and distillation equipment specialist, Arnold Holstein forged special kiln, which is positioned alongside the beer boiling tanks at the brewery.

Brewing distilled lager requires a lot of time and patience. In the kiln, the beer is heated to a temperature of over 75 °C. It is a slow process – in three hours, from 150 litres of beer, we obtain just seven litres of distilled larger with a strength of ABV 80%. Later on, we mix this with water from Valmiermuiža’s artesian well so that the strength “drops” to 42 %. Before it is poured into a bottle, distilled lager is frozen to a temperature of —4 °C, thus making it even purer.
