DESCRIPTION

Stone Lifter is a collaboration with Basqueland.

Stone Lifting is a traditional sport played on the Playa de la Concha in San Sebastian. This beer is a NEPA brewed with a high-ester yeast combination of London Fog and Windsor.

It was then hopped with Vic Secret, Simcoe and Mosaic to bulk out its fruitiness.

Goes well with deft lifts and old stones.

Featuring Kevin, Head Chef at Basqueland Brew.

Can at home picked up from clapton Craft kentish town. An attractive translucent golden coloured pour with a lasting rocky white head. Aroma is loose wheat, some loose tea leaves, zippy lemon, white grape. Flavour is composed of quite sweet doughy bready wheat, spicy citrus, salty mineral, A bit sickly, Palate is semi sweet, mineral, moderate carbonation. some jammy citrus in the finish. Not a big fan.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Clapton Craft. Pours unclear orange-gold with a small, frothy white head. Fairly tasty, has some simple grainy pale malts, semi-ripe orange, a little rindy bitterness, pale bread. Lightly bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with more pale grains, soft bitterness, citrus fruits. Basic stuff but drinks fine overall.
