STAYCATION

FRUITED BERLINER WEISSE WITH LACTOSE

Cancel all plans. Keep two metres. Don’t speak moistly. Order in food. Do touch this. Don’t touch that. Support your local business. Be kind. Say hi to your neighbours. Bake bread. Ride your bike. Love your dog. Read to your kids. Feel the sun on your face. Dream big dreams. Be thankful. Social distancing is tough work - you definitely need a Staycation.

Staycation Fruited Berliner Weisse with Lactose is pandemic life in springtime in a glass. It is part sweet, part sour and there is so much vibrancy right before your eyes, like the stay-at-home life you’ve been ignoring all this time, without realizing just how awesome it is. With tart cherry, raspberry, red currant, black currant, blueberry and blackberry blending in a jam-like melange, there is a lot to be thankful for and enjoy. While safely nestled at home.

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.

RISE & SHINE

HOPPED HEFEWEIZEN

Wake to birdsong. Make coffee. Watch sun rise. Eat breakfast. Read paper. Walk the dog. By the time the rest of the house wakes, you’ve already won the day - and you’re definitely ready for second breakfast. In Bavaria, this is called brotzeit and usually involves a tall glass of hazy hefeweizen beer. Our take on the style has a north American twist. Sabro hops complement the banana and juicy fruit aromas from the German yeast strain. The body is bready and full from the mountains of wheat used to brew this beer. It is a glorious shade of light golden yellow, like an early morning sun flare. Rise and shine. Win the day

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.
