Pineapple Beer w/ Jalapeño
A beer inspired by our own PB+J Pizza…and by cutting down on food waste. We took a classic Hefeweizen recipe, and got a little creative with it. Over the weekend before brew day, the kitchen team at Campio cooked up any leftover pizza dough into plain crusts. We then threw them into the Mash with the rest of the grain bill of this beer adding fermentable sugars as well as an extra character to the mouthfeel. We then added a healthy dose of pineapple and jalapeno for a secondary fermentation, bringing forward the flavours of both with just a touch of spice on the back end. While the debate rages on about pineapple on pizza, it has found a new perfect placement in this ester-y fruity, and light spicy take on a Hef.

Slight haze, aroma mostly of jalapeño with some hefe. On the palate, hefe is light, some banana background, jalapeño is ok, pineapple not strong.

On tap at Campio, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of jalapeños, a touch of pineapple, and soft wheaty notes underneath I guess. Flavour has sweet juicy pineapple, a soft wheaty underpinning, and light jalapeño. Weird mix of elements that obscures the hef base. Not a fan.

On tap at the brewery. Pours murky dull yellow with a white head. Cloves, banana, and some pineapple on the nose. Flavour has dry wheaty malts, cloves, banana; not getting much pineapple, but there is a bit of heat from the jalapeño on the finish. Weird beer.
