We’re fully into winter mode people! Everyone is feeling the temperature drop, and breweries are delighting us with all the tasty and toasty treats that come with the season. Find a wide spread of beers that focus on malt and the spread of intensities and flavours you can achieve with it, plus some very hoppy and fruity treats by Urban Alley and Garage Project!
What's in the box:
Devilbend • Coffee Brown Ale
Coffee Brown Ale | 5.0% | Tuerong, VIC
About • A classic style with a modern twist. This toasty brown ale brings on the roastiness and nutty flavours of coffee from their Peninsula neighbours Red Hill Roast.
Taste • Lovely notes of coffee cake, with hints of burnt toffee and chocolate milk. There’s something very nostalgic about it, what a treat!
Seeker • Slam Dunkel
Munich Dunkel | 45.0% | Unanderra, NSW
About • The Woolongong brewers keep on exploring different styles and this time they take us all the way to Munich with a refreshing but darker lager. Prost!
Taste • Highly drinkable malty number with notes of Milo, Malteasers and Toasted Rye Bread.
Urban Alley • Misdirection
West Coast Double IPA | 8.0% | Docklands, VIC
About • A beer that combines classic and modern hops, the classic piney dankness from Columbus and Simcoe, plus the tropical and stonefruit notes from Mosaic and Nectaron!
Taste • Notes of rock melon, peaches and light resin. Just as predicted, the modern and old world of IPAs blend beautifully in this highly drinkable brew.
Philter • Double Red Ale
Imperial Red Ale | 8.0% | Marrickville, NSW
About • A style easily confused with a Red IPA but focused on the beautiful balance of the hops and the malt. We’re excited to see it back!
Taste • Notes of grapefruit, strawberry and dried cherries backed up by a caramelly base with light notes of toffee. Well hidden booze, watch out!
Garage Project • Flamingo City
Pink Pomelo Paloma Florida Weisse | 4.3% | Wellington, New Zealand
About • A highly fruited version of the classic Berliner Weisse from Germany, based on the popular Paloma cocktail from Mexico, brewed in NZ and drank in Aus! What a world!
Taste • Soda vibes all round. Agrum and proper Pomelo soft drink like the OG Palomas made in Mexico with an extra kick of sourness, and light agave notes.
Wolf of the Willows • Johnny Lark
Whisky Barrel Aged Imperial Stout | 10.5% | Mordialloc, VIC
About • This classic release made alongside the Tassie distillers is back in a much more convenient size that allows us to enjoy it without having to cancel tomorrow's brunch plans.
Taste • Massive lashes of raisin, chocolate and toffee with an assertive whisky note. A dry finish with lingering bitterness completes the experience. Huge, yet delicious.
