This is our big little lager, with flavour. The perfect lawnmower brew, perhaps?! Brewed with North American malts to 4.5% ABV and 17 IBU worth of Hallertau Hersbrucker with a twist of Cascade hops in the finish; a fun little continental hybrid.

Cheers!

...... The one and only THULSA DOOM is long gone, folks.

In its place we have a lone, aged 20 L keg of Oak-Aged Double Hoppelganger which won't last long, I'm sure.

Intergalactic SMsSH'd Lager is tasting unbelievably delectable!

Coming soon: HaliLager; a Euro-style lager at 4.5% ABV brewed with Hersbrucker and Cascade hops to 17 IBU. Crispy.

SMaSH'd Lager

Intergalactic SMaSH'd Lager hits the taps today at 4:00 PM!

Brewed exclusively with Superior Pale Ale malt and Galaxy hops. An intergalactic amped-up lager; hopped to the hilt starting at the mash and finishing with multiple dry-hop additions. The single malt brew coupled with the clean lager fermentation make this an epic canvas for a true taste of this newer Australian hop cultivar.

Brewed with love and pummelled with verbs. Please enjoy!

Thulsa Doom - DIPA

Our latest Double IPA hits the taps Wednesday, April 16th @ 4:00 PM.

The mighty Thulsa Doom spawned from the dregs of a tiny little can of Heady Topper.

The yeast strain (known simply as 'Conan') is sought after and regarded for it's intensely fruity, apricot-like ester production. We thought we'd have a time brewing up a DIPA with it, and a time we had. 

Local homebrewer and Brewnoser Rob Shortt harvested yeast from a can of the deliciously hoppy brew, cultured it up to a 2 L starter and ran it across the harbour delivering it straight into my hands. I continued the mission, nurturing and feeding the beast until multiplied into a very healthy and concentrated 50 L starter for the main batch of Thulsa. Fast forward through several weeks of dry-hopping and conditioning, now we drink!

Share the hop-love.
