It’s been a minute since we released another nod to our beloved Lucy, aloft and adrip with diamonds, but don’t trip, the wait was not in vain. We’re proud to present you with another honourary member of Sgt. Pep’s Lonely Heart Club that’s anything but bland: Cellophane Flowers.
This beer isn’t unlike Kaleidoscope Eyes in that it’s a passionfruit sour, but it’s not quite like it either since we added a healthy helping of hops to the mix. We used Azacca hops, these flowers of yellow and green grow so incredibly high throughout America. They’re partially to praise for the tropical taste that makes everyone smile as they drift by.
Since more flavours combine in this brew’s bouquet, the trick was in a perfectly balanced arrangement between the sour, fruity, and hoppy elements. We achieved this through post-fermentation hops to maintain the flavour and aroma of the Azacca without inviting the bitterness to compete with the fruit’s tart torridity.
Malt: 2-Row, Flaked Oats, Flaked Wheat, Malted Wheat, Cara-Pils
Yeast: Escarpment Labs Kolsch
Hops: Azacca
Stop: to drink the flowers

473ml can. Pours a hazy yellow-orange with yeast particles sinking to the bottom and a small, creamy, short lived, white head that laces. Sweet aroma of bready wheat malt, passion fruit, orange, earthy yeast and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, passion fruit, pineapple, mango, grapefruit, lime, earthy yeast and floral hops in a dry, tart finish. Medium body with a smooth, soft, sticky, texture and average carbonation. Delicious. Very juicy and enjoyable.
