Tarantula Juice IPA - ABV 4.8%
Tasting notes:
This is part of our Great Uncle John range, which honours the memory of founder Rik’s descendant who brewed in 1930s Canada. This is a traditionally hazy and juicy New England IPA featuring the Pekko and Sultana hop varieties from the US, both of which were not around when Great Uncle John was tending to his mash tun. On the other hand, he might have been enchanted by the rich interplay between light caramel and ripe stone fruit and joyful pineapple on the nose, the kind of aromatic temptation that gets the taste buds clambering to rush into action, and then further enthralled by more of this fruity one-two, the soothing mouth feel and the dry finish, which lingers like the call of wild geese heading home for the night’s roost. And once again we stress no spiders were harmed in the making of this beer.
Hops: Pekko, Sultana
Food pairing: This one is simple, it is time for cheese, perhaps the sharpest and tangiest Cheddar you can find, which dovetails with the fruitiness of the beer, while a well-matured, salty and creamy Stilton will also prove to be a wow with the beer. Ready, steady, salivate.
Also available as a 9 pint mini keg.
