Our 2017 recipe follows in the footsteps of 2015 and 2016’s award winning batches - a relatively simple malt bill, Australian-grown hops and a painstaking fermentation regime.
The resulting beer was aged through Melbourne’s tumultuous summer in fresh Starward whisky barrels. The extreme swings in temperature allow for a faster uptake of barrel character than would be possible during more consistently cool days.
APPEARANCE: Deep copper with a slight haze.
AROMA: Subtle whisky notes, vanilla and candied orange.
FLAVOUR: Rich mouthfeel with sweet boozy front palate, malt sweetness on the middle palate, with a medium-dry finish and moderate bitterness.
MALTS: Ale, Dextrose and Pale Crystal.
HOPS: Super Pride and Ella.
