Batch | 1We have always had a deep appreciation and respect for the styles that hail from England. Complex in technicality & nature but designed to be drunken by the masses.
We are proud to announce a new range that takes inspiration from these pub beers of old, with our Sobremesa spin & 100% independent Australian ingredients.
Brewed with 100% Veloria malt from Voyager (NSW).
Hopped in the boil & whirlpool w/ RH01, Red Earth & Chinook from Ryefield Hops (NSW) to 32 IBU.
This beer was fermented in stainless without temperature control w/ an english strain called Yonder from Mogwai Labs (NSW)
Packaged on January 25th 2025 and bottle conditioned for 4 weeks.
Honey, sweet bready malt & cedar sing from the glass.
The honey continues to the palate combined w/ a breadiness & subtle tobacco character.
Light carb, moreish bitterness & a nostalgic yeasty character.

Wasn't sure what to expect, but this was a real pleasure. Aromas of honey, biscuit, lemon drops and dried wood (!). There's a real earthiness balanced by a full mouthfeel and some light citrus.

Cloudy golden amber with a puffy cm of white head. Aroma of peach, spicy, grassy and earthy yeast-driven notes, apple box. Creamy, alive. Sweet at first with bread and peach before firm spicy bitterness gradually grips.
