Brewer’s Notes – Babooshka

Babooshka is our latest dry hopped pale. Matt, our developmental brewer, takes the time to share a bit about the process behind the pint.

BREWER’S NOTES: BABOOSHKA

So here we set out to brew a beer that is low in ABV and high in flavour. Dextrin malt and oats add body; a generous Mosaic and Ekuanot leaf hops addition on the hot side bring satisfying late hop flavour; while post-fermentation Citra, Mosaic and Idaho 7 pellet additions bring layers of tropical, citrus and stone fruit.

We’ve fermented this beer with S-04 yeast, to provide a crisp and refreshing finish that readies the palette ready for the next sip.

Available in cask only. Its lower ABV makes it the perfect choice for a long afternoon in the pub catching up with friends and family, or the ideal thirst quencher at the end of a brisk late-winter/early-spring walk.
