Craft Beer Store Weekly Update 25th February 2016

25th Feb 2016

This week we have a total of 11 new beers from brewers in Belgium, the U.S., New Zealand and Australia. From Belgium we have two dark beers, a dark abbey triple from Abbaye Des Rocs and a dark strong brown ale style from Brasserie Caracole. Both of these would make for the perfect night cap beer.

From the U.S. we have the Spectra Trifecta from Founders which is a Kolsch styled ale brewed with Chamomile, Ginger and Lemongrass. 

From New Zealand we have a festive IPA from Moa and Parrot Dog has brought us a super limited release with their Rarebird Tomtit Sour Ale. The Tomtit Sour is part of the RareBird limited release series which are one-off beers inspired by quirky birds of New Zealand. To make this sour ale, naturally-occurring bacteria was given free reign for a few days in the brew kettle before it was fired up. The beer was then conditioned on over a hundred kilos of tamarillo fruits. Tomtit is my stand out beer for the week.

And last but not least from Victoria we have an American Pale and an IPA from Arctic Fox and 3 new beers from Moon Dog, the masters of quirky labels and super long beer names.... like Jumping The Shark 2015 Rye Whisky Barrel Aged Imperial Rye Ale. The 2015 release of Jumping the Shark is the third annual release of the beer and if you looking to get something for the cellar this would be it this week.

Happy Drinking!

Available in store and  online.
