FUEGO

MEXICAN HOT CHOCOLATE STOUT

Say hello to Luna & Fuego’s little cousin…

Just like our barrel-aged Luna & Fuego, we started with a whopping imperial stout with cocoa, cinnamon and vanilla, then spiked it with a trio of chilies – sweet ancho, tangy guajillo and smoky chipotle. We’ve transferred a bunch of this beer to tequila barrels for a long sleep (see you in winter Luna & Fuego V2!) but for now you are in good company with Fuego - it’s unoaked, unaged, all sorts of fun and ready to drink now.

The beer pours a thick, viscous black. The vanilla and cinnamon lend notes of horchata, while the cocoa and chili marry to create a decadently sweet and lingering spicy flavour.

 Did we mention it’s smooth? Ridiculously so.

NOCTURNE

DUNKELWEIZEN

Listen to cicadas. Watch the sun set. Breath more slowly. Read a good novel. Gaze at the stars. Let gentle music wrap around you. Embrace your lover. As the world around you slowly goes to sleep, reflect on a day well done and raise a toast to yourself.
.
Nocturne Dunkelweizen – the darker sister of our Rise & Shine Hefeweizen – is like liquid banana bread. Experimental hop HBC-472 and its gentle oak notes complement the banana aromas from the German yeast strain and the light chocolate notes from the malt. This dark wheat beer is full-bodied and fluffy from the ample additions of wheat. It’s a glorious shade of light mahogany, like the early evening light. Close your eyes and enjoy our Nocturne. This day is yours.

STYLE: DUNKELWEIZEN

FLAVOUR PROFILE: Liquid banana bread with an oaky twist

PIPE & SLIPPERS

WHEAT PORTER

That winter life is hard. Sometimes you just need to slump into your favourite chair, put your feet up and chill the hell out. Pipe & Slippers Wheat Porter is how we unwind. A subtle wisp of smoke tickles the nostrils one minute, then is gone the next. Chocolate and caramel notes dominate, with toffee and dried fruit flavours and aromas creating a wonderful complexity. Delectable wafts of freshly toasted bread remind you that wheat is your friend and wants you to be happy. Some say there is no such thing as a wheat porter. We say stick it in your pipe and drink it.

STYLE: Wheat Porter

FLAVOUR PROFILE: Chocolate, toasty with a wisp of smoke
