KAFFIR LIME GOSE
KETTLE-SOURED GOSE
4% ABV / 20 IBU
We have attempted to replicate a Gose from Northern Germany, by adding salt to the brewing water; souring over an extended period in the kettle with unmilled grain; adding coriander and Kaffir lime to the kettle and using a neutral yeast. The result is a beer that smells like a margarita cocktail … a little salty, definitely sour with a soft wheat malt finish. Winner of a Bronze Medal at 2019 Australian IBA Awards

CHOCOLATE MARSHMALLOW STOUT
CREAM STOUT
5.5% ABV /<10 IBU
This idea and recipe came from our apprentice Brewer, Emilee Dell-Wallace. Emilee spent some time in the kitchen playing with marshmallows and how best to extract their flavour into a beer. The result – a stick mess, but worth the effort. This recipe includes organic cacoa nibs, vanilla beans, real marshmallows and lactose and the result is a creamy chocolate black beer, with just a hint of vanilla and marshmallow, and no bitterness
DOUBLE SUNSHINE RED IPA
RED IPA
7.2% ABV / 75 IBU

ENDLESS DAZE
HAZY XPA
3.5% ABV /18 IBU
This is Emilee’s second commercial brew. designed to be a full-flavoured Hazy XPA but only mid-strength alcohol. Emilee conducted a rub-&-sniff test with different ratios of Eclipse and Simcoe hops to get public opinion on the ratio mix, and then made use of the new Gladfields malt – “Big O” Oats. The result is a very nicely balanced XPA – lots of flavour, aroma and good body
