Synaptic Illusion

Just in time for the onslaught that is the Ladies Beer League (pucker up ladies, mwahaha!), Thursday @ 7:15 p.m. we have our latest release in the form of:

Synaptic Illusion - Sour Saison


Berries, fruit and spice with a little bit of funk and a whole lot of tart; a little farmhouse ale with a serious wallop of refreshing flavour and acidity.

The wort was soured with some lacto delbruckii I whipped up in the back room. Boiled the wort for 30 minutes, cooled then fermented on a 4th yr-running Saison strain originating from a culture of Wyeast 3711 French Saison - not really sure what it is now, it's morphed. Aged on oak to finish = money. Regardless, a fun beer all around!

Please enjoy.


Vital Stats:

OG - 11.4 P / 1.046
ABV - 5.0 %
IBUs ~ 7
Malts - 2-row, Light Carastan, Munich, Biscuit, Wheat, Carapils
Hops - Hallertau Hersbrucker
Hop Rate -  0.5 lbs/bbl
SRM ~ 4.7

Cheers!

It's FIRKIN Saturday!

Todays firkin cask @rockbotmbrewpub is.........


Black and Sour!

A blend of our Jactar Stout and our up-and-coming yet-to-be-named sour ale, which is loosely based on the Kentucky Common-style and fermented on French Saison yeast.

Enjoy!

Cheers, Nash

Rookie Returns


A mini hop-bomb; our American-style Pale Mild is back on tap, now.

Based on a wee UK Pale Mild with one exception; it's pummelled with Pacific Northwest hops at IPA levels. Brewed with Columbus and Simcoe along with copious amounts of caramel, biscuit and aromatic malts. Juicy, citrusy, refreshing and very aromatic - Rookie packs a boatload of flavour.

Enjoy!

OG - 9.0 P / 1.036
ABV - 3.1 %
IBUs ~ 25
Malts - Pale Ale, Carastan, Dark Carastan, Melanoidin, Biscuit, Aromatic, Chocolate
Hops - Columbus, Simcoe
Hop Rate -  3.2 lbs/bbl
SRM ~ 12
