Description
Stillwell Brewing is the brewery off-shoot of Halifax craft beer bar Stillwell. We are a small brewing project focussing on oak-fermented, bottle conditioned farmhouse-style ales that are subtle, balanced and unique to our brewery. We’re brewing on a very old, very manual 15bbl, two-vessel steam-powered brewhouse. We also make draught-only lagers for Stillwell, Stillwell Beergarden & The Stillwell Freehouse.

Fab! Tropical, brilliantly tropical hops. Gosh, it's finally spring break. This is probably my first beer from Nova Scotia.

Floral grapes notes up front, acidic, maybe a bit of pomegranate or hibiscus. Very watery finish

Bottle from Deconinck. Clear golden, small, foamy, white head. Aroma of white grape, melon, apple peel, pear, mandarin, lemon zest, sourdough, clove. Taste has sweet-sour grape, apple & pear over sourdough maltiness with lemony, bit lactic notes - funky, yeasty. Tart, lemony finish, yellow fruit lingering as well as grape, oak & dry white wine. Medium body, slick-moussy texture, average carbonation. Refreshing.

Tasting at Salesforce, can
Pale blond colour, cloudy. Strange aroma, lemon, hazelnut, very light Band Aid. Dry and weak, maybe a bit spicy, wet paper, mild bitterness. Nothing of interest here.

12oz @ SalesForce office. Appearance: hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma: nice Brett, juicy, some fruity notes. Taste: a quite aggressive Brett, some flowers and honey. Overall: pretty nice, but a bit unbalanced on the Brett side.

Draught Medium, dense white head with an orange sheen over hazy orangey golden beer. Unmistakable peach, fruitacids, suspicion of lactic, and farmyard odours, with a faraway reminiscence of lambic. Dry, tart, spicy peach. Fine surrounding acidity, partly masking the relative lack of carbonation. Some spiciness. Light body, tart, light acidthinning and -burn. Not very long-lasting flavours. Pretty good.

Bottle at Ryan's; brewed 2017, bottled mar 2018
Cloudy blond colour. Sour, moderately funky, smooth, maybe a bit too much yeast, but overall it's enjoyable.
