An incredibly unusual beer made in collaboration with three brewers
A collaboration of three brewers, three nationalities and six ideas brought together to learn, experiment and enjoy. Made by Kelly Ryan from Good George Beer in NZ, Brett Ellis (originally from the US) from the Wild Beer Co, and Mark Tranter from Burning Sky Brewery. This beer explores new ideas, techniques, ingredients, combinations and processes.
Using all three brewers combined knowledge and experiences to create an incredibly unusual and complex beer, this utilises every opportunity to take advantage of amazing ingredients and try alternative techniques.
Somerset Sharpham Park Spelt has been used for a full body. Pink peppercorns give a gentle sweet spiciness. Saison and Brettanomyces yeast strains lead to a dry spicy character that will continue to evolve. Wood-ageing in French red wine barrels for 4 months adds depth and oak. Passion-fruit brings a tart tropical fruit character. The 4 month ageing process has been finished off with amazingly tangy Hibiscus flowers. That is one shnoodlepippin beer!

I don't care that I ordered it for the name, the taste is insanely good. It's punky and funky.ย

330ml bottle. Hazy golden colour, thin white foam head and aroma of pepper, passionfruit, some funk. Taste is peppery upfront, grainy, sour, funk followed by fruity, passionfruit and flowery notes. Light to medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry finish with alittle lingering pepper. Interesting, quite drinkable.

330 ml bottle. Slightly unclear golden body with a lacing, small, white head. A bit strange but very nice aroma of herbs, fruit, pine, tea, pepper and some acidity. Flavor is sweet and sour with fruit, rhubarb, passion fruit, pepper, herbs and slightly funky. Fine body and long lasting aftertaste. Interesting and wonderful beer.
