SLOWBEER'S NEWS, REVIEWS & ARRIVALS - BEER HERE!

Short & sweet this week. The addition of another world class, albeit relatively young Scandinavian brewer to our range & a last call for those wishing to attend our Mikkeller Showcase sessions next week.

FEATURE BREWERY
BEER HERE (DEN)
Its with much excitement that we welcome another excellent range of Scandinavian brews, this time from the Copenhagen based Beer Here. Much like their fellow countrymen, Mikkeller, Beer Here are gypsy brewers, in that they hop around Europe brewing at many locations, some as far as Brewdog in Scotland.

Lupulis 500ml $11.00 – Hoppy Pale Ale brewed with American & Kiwi hop varieties
Fat Cat 500ml $11.00 - Hoppy Amber Ale brewed with the increasingly popular Nelson Sauvin variety
Hop Fix 500ml $12.50 - A big & brash IPA, brewed with rye, attributing a chewy caramel palate with a cleansing, spicy bitterness
Hoptilicus 500ml $14.00 – American style Strong Ale, brewed with beet sugar, dark malt & copious amounts of Centennial & Chinook hops
Paske Ale 500ml $12.50 - Tribute to beers of a bygone era, with recipes found on tablets in modern day Iraq. Points to the use of barley, honey, dates & grapes.
Amme Stout 500ml $12.50– Traditional English style stout brewed with milk sugar & coffee
