ANIMALE HOUSE – 8th Anniversary Release
Double IPA
Colour: Golden
ABV: 8%
Suggested Glassware: Ale Glass
Tasting Notes: We had to ask ourselves, how do we take our Animale series to the next level for our 8th anniversary? We figured this special release absolutely requires a wild amount of unconventional hop products, a menagerie of ingredients you’ve never tasted before today. So, welcome to the “Animale House” party – a celebration of everything we’ve learned over the last eight years while experimenting with hop-forward beer. Made with a heavy oat and wheat base for a pillowy body and jam packed with the juiciest hops on planet earth. Chinook Incognito was added on the hot side, then we fermented with a heavily thiolized yeast strain and dry-hopped with loads of Citra, Mosaic, Sabro, and Citra Lupomax. Expect amplified flavours and aromas of orange juice, guava, and pineapple – fresh from the punch bowl. But wait, the party is just getting started! We also injected a new hop product called Cosmic Guava Euphorics after fermentation to load it with as much tropical fruit character as humanly possible.

SIRIO GERMAN STYLE ALTBIER
Altbier
Colour: Amber
ABV: 5.6%
Suggested Glassware: Ale Glass
Tasting Notes: Benvenuto a Sirio, our ‘new’ take on a traditional Altbier of ‘old’ that hails from the valleys of Rhineland. Made collaboratively as a farewell to our good friend Andrea, who made the trek all the way from Italy to spend the summer here at Luppolo. Paying homage to Andrea’s nonno Sirio, this beer is made with premium Italian barley and a blend of Munich malts. Sirio was single decocted for added malt depth, gently hopped with Hallertau and fermented with a classic German ale yeast. Expect aromas of freshly baked panettone, fig jam, and turbinado sugar with scrumptious flavours of honey and dates. Medium bodied with a delicate bitterness and a dry crisp finish, this altbier is as inviting as it is crushable. Andrea you will always be famiglia and we are proud to share this beer on your behalf. Ciao bello!

This beer was then refermented in the bottle with locally sourced wildflower honey for a high-level of natural carbonation. Aromas of petrichor, crabapple, white pepper, brett funk and a lasting bouquet of fresh flowers. Expect a bright and balanced acidity with a champagne-like carbonation that cleanses your palette with each sip.
