MAGNOLIA
Mixed Fermentation Saison with Magnolia Flowers
Colour: Cloudy Straw Yellow
ABV: 4.6%
Suggested Glassware: Wine Glass
Tasting Notes: Magnolia is a blend of fresh and matured barrel-aged mixed-fermentation saisons conditioned on fresh magnolia flowers foraged from a neighbour’s backyard in East Vancouver. 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.

HEDGE YOUR BETS
Noble IPA
Colour: Golden
ABV: 5%
Suggested Glassware: Ale Glass
Tasting Notes: Go hog wild with this new unique IPA composed of new world and traditional German hops from the Hallertau region and fermented with Kölsch yeast bridging the gap between a crushable lager and a modern, citrus punch IPA. Hedge Your Bets pours a sunny golden copper with persistent head, gentle carbonation and a dry finish. Rolling aromas of peach rings, lemon-lime soda and dried mango lead into a sonic boom of flavour profiles like lavender shortbread, passion fruit and jasmine tea, with gentle wisps of resinous herbal spice. The bold hop character is playful, yet assertive with a smooth bitterness and quill vibes. It’s time to Hedge Your Bets because this IPA is here to stay!.

DUOMO KÖLSCH STYLE ALE
Kölsh
Colour: Golden
ABV: 5%
Suggested Glassware: Ale Glass
Tasting Notes: Duomo, which means cathedral in Italian, pays homage to Cologne, known for its famous cathedral and even more infamous lagered ale. Just like the duomi of Italy where people gather, Kölsch beer has brought people together for centuries. It took us 7 years to finally make a Kölsch style beer, and we are incredibly excited to share our interpretation of this historic ale. Duomo incorporates 100% Extra Pale Premium German pilsner malt, Tettnanger hops, and a classic strain of Kölsch yeast. This beer was naturally carbonated and lagered long and slow giving it a very crisp finish with a fluffy lasting head of foam. We get aromas of lemon peel, gewurztraminer, bee pollen and marigold flowers. Low bitterness and a dry finish make this beer incredibly sessionable. Duomo is an excellent beer to share with loved ones over a meal or to crush with friends at the park while watching the sunset!
