Description
A lot goes into making great tasting beer and spirit. It takes the right ingredients delicately balanced together to produce that great taste you’re looking for. It takes experience and a team of brewmasters and distillers who are dedicated to the craft of beverages. It takes an understanding of what people want when they crack one open on a warm summer night, a weekend spent catching up with good friends, or at the end of a long hike.

At Prickly Moses Brewing Co we think it takes all of the above, but we also think it takes something else. We call it Otway magic, but you might know her as Mother Nature. We’re an independent brewery and the home of the Prickly Moses Brewery, Forbidden Fruit Cidery and Redwood Distillery. Some local brands you know and love.

From a 330ml bottle on 27/1/2014. Pours a cloudy pale yellow/straw with a small head. Has a slightly odd, fruity yeasty aroma. The flavour is similarly odd, with some tart citrus and yeast, with a dry, slightly sharp bitterness. Light bodied with medium to lively carbonation. I can’t say I found this particularly cohesive or enjoyable.
