Description
Jason Harris and Craig Basford decided they were going to do more than just brew the beers they’d been concocting in their man shed for years: they wanted to bring others along with them. So, more than a decade after they’d started making beer together in a rented farmer’s shed in the Barossa, when Big Shed Brewing Concern became a reality it came with an invitation to their peers: if you’re looking for somewhere to brew, we’ve got the space for you.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is strong resinous hops with grapefruit, malt, pine resin, some caramel. Flavour is bitter with a mild sweetness. Long bitter finish. Body is medium. Nicely resinous, could have used some more fruits for balance though.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is milk chocolate with vanilla, caramel, toffee, dark malt, some roast, cookies. Flavour is sweet with a mild bitterness. Medium body. Decent basic Pastry Stout, lacks body ofcourse but that's down to personal preference.

Yeah it's super sweet so I'm not sold that it is good in bottle format, but it's good in small doses.

From a 375ml can on 31/7/2024. Pours a dirty deep golden with a smallish head. Has a light but slightly dank ripe tropical nose. The flavour features masses of sweet apricot, with some mango and a touch pineapple and honey in the mix. Finishes with a decent lingering bitterness with herbal and citrus rind notes. Silky mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. Complex, balanced, unusual. Outstanding.

On tap - Pours a murky yellow colour with a small, diminishing, white head that settled to a thin film. The aroma is fruity, tropical fruits, pineapple, passionfruit, mango, sweet oranges. A fruity sweet taste with a light bitterness that cuts through some of the sweetness. Pineapple, passionfruit, mango, peach, and orange flavours with a light fruity tang in the finish. Refreshing and goes down easy on a hot Sydney evening.

From a 375ml can on 21/1/2024. Pours a deepest brown with a biggish tan head that disappears quickly. it smells malty, with dark chocolate, caramel, soy, vegemite and nuts. All of that features in the taste which is rich, smooth and very easy drinking for the size. Has a slick slightly oily palate with moderate carbonation. A really good impy.

From a 375ml can on 1/11/2023. Pours a very slightly hazy golden with a small to medium head. Has a modest fruity citrus nose. Tastes of citrus and a touch of white grape, with a moderate bitter finish. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Drinakable enough but lacks a bit of definition and character.
