Description
Fresh, Fun, Approachable, Hop-Forward

Hey there! We're Offshoot Beer Co. from your friends at The Bruery. Offshoot is the Bruers' playground, where we dive deep into the world of hop-forward beers. While we could definitely geek out on the intricacies of making these beers, we'd rather just open a cold one and...Relax.

What is Offshoot?

Years ago our founder Patrick Rue made a promise to NEVER brew an IPA. As time went on, our adventurous Bruers KNEW they could make world class hop-forward beers, so Offshoot was born as an offshoot of The Bruery, all while keeping Patrick's promise that The Bruery would NEVER make an IPA.

Where The Bruers Relax

Offshoot is what The Bruers drink when they're off the clock. Nothing better to help you Relax, Escape, Retreat, or Coast.

Both aromas and flavors have plenty of fresh grapefruit with a little pine resin and dank hops. Mildly sweet up front with lots of growing bitterness towards a bitter finish. Decent beer.

dank, booze big orange juice and mango character, modestly tart, modestly bitter. Full bodied. Perfectly acceptable yet does little for me.

From a 473ml can on 3/1/2020. Pours a light clear golden with a medium head. The aroma is quite strong, resiny and a bit herbal. Has a decent malt and biscuit backbone, a decent whack of sweet citrus, and finishes with strong resiny, piny hops. The mouthfeel is a bit slick, the carbonation moderate to average.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Golden colour, medium head. Its quite malty, which is good for a pils; not getting particular hop vibes, but overall it's quite solid.

Murky blond colour. Stone fruit and a touch of tropical fruit, it's juicy and moderately sweet, with low bitterness. Very good.

16 oz. can, pours a cloudy golden with a large white head. Aroma reveals a somewhat old earthy hops, a little pine, and bready malt. Flavour is quite juicy, with lots of juicy citrus, some stone fruit, resinous hops, and bready malt. Juicy and citrus, with not too much chalk. Decent.

16 oz. can, pours a cloudy bright yellow with a small white head. Nose brings out stone fruits, some tropical fruits, citrus hops, and a hint of dankness. Flavour is very juicy, with a nice tropical stone fruit juiciness, slightly dank citrus hopping, and a fairly dry bready malt base. Really nicely juicy with none of that yeasty, chalky character that destroys most hazies. Pleasant bitter, juicy but dry finish. Excellent.

16 oz. can, about 2.5 months old, pours a hazy golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out lots of bitter piney hops, a bit of woody resins, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is full of resinous and piney hops, some woody notes, and caramely bready malt. Nice balance between malt and hoppy, while the hops maintain their bitter forcefulness despite the somewhat sticky malt. Very nice west coast-style.
