The fifth and final beer in our birthday series is the loudest and most amplified beer we've brewed yet, and who better to collaborate with than the incredible We Were Promised Jetpacks who are also celebrating their 20th Birthday this year. The Indie Rock band have been hugely credited for their atmospheric sound backed with their empathetic lyrics captured in their distinctive Scottish accent. We've certainly been big fans of the band since their debut album, These Four Walls and were delighted when we spied them drinking an Overtone one night. Needless to say we slipped in their DMs and the rest is history.
Back to the beer though, with us both reaching a milestone and their music inspiring us to make something ambitious and dynamic, we decided to brew a TIPA. Using a new product for us called Phantasm, a powder derived from Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc grapes, then double dry-hopped with Citra, Nelson Sauvin and Motueka hops, this beer is undoubtedly our hoppiest and haziest beer to date.
Hops: Phantasm, Citra, Citra Cryo, Nelson Sauvin, Motueka
