Description
Hey! Welcome to Urban Roots. We’re here because we love people and beer. We wanted to make beer and create a space to show that love to the world. Our place has plenty of room for people to hang out and enjoy one another, some super fresh beer and some really tasty food. Urban Roots started when Rob and Peter decided it was time to open the brewery they’d been dreaming of for a long long time. They wanted a place where they could express their love for the industry they’ve been a part of for so long. With Urban Roots they hope to pay homage to all of the wonderful people they have met on their journey. People that showed them amazing beer and maybe more importantly showed them a good time.

Can from Bine & Vine. Pours clear dark gold with a large creamy/foamy white head. Aroma has a bit of dank with citrus and melon. Med body with foamy carbonation. Flavor matches aroma, but has a certain earthiness. Tropical, slightly juicy, yet well towards dry. Light dank bitterness is more than enough to please. Nicely done.

On tap at Gourmet Haus. A lot of funk on this beer and touch to find the right category for it....but the brewer calls it a Saison. Very tart with the Brett and Lacto showing prominently. Hazy deep yellow with white head. Complex and interesting with spicy esters throughout.

Waxed 375 from Corti Bros. Pours clear, darkish mahogany with a transient beige head. Aroma of cherry, raisin, plum and maybe other dark fruits over a moderately toasty malt base. Flavor is very, very nice - matching the aroma with the addition of Demerara sugar. Not dry. Not bitter. But incredibly tasty. Excellent quad.

From Beer Drop. Canned July 8th.

It pours a clear straw gold with a good head of foam that lasts leaving lacing behind.

Aromatic nose of dry hopping, noble like, some bready notes.

Dry hop, noble hop like bitterness, dryness, crisp, some notes of bread. Superb drinkable.

Medium body, good healthy carbonation.

This is quite excellent and pleasing.
