The Prequel
Alc/ Vol 6.8%
Introducing the Prequel, an ultra dry-hopped Australian style ale...the father of Pacific Ale that never was. Billowing with aromas of passionfruit, pineapple, mango and citrus, this beer is as refreshing as a freshly squeezed juice and pours hazy gold! Copious additions of Galaxy offer maximum juiceyness and haze, whilst it's low bitterness and moderate carbonation make it deliciously moreish!
Available at the Byron brewery's tasting room for a limited time only!
Splice of Summer
Alc / Vol 3%
The jumping off point for this refreshing kettle-soured light summer ale was a splice ice-cream. It's summer. It's hot. Remember back to when you stood with your friends by the beach and licked that dripping ice-cream, the sour juice running down your arms? Well here's the adults version. A totally "smashable" summer ale that has a citrusy nose with the addition of 40 limes added at the end of fermentation but allows for a lip-smacking dry finish. To give homage to the ice-cream we slightly back-sweetened with unfermentable sugars. Coming in at an easy-drinking 3% ABV this is a beer that you won't want to miss.
