SLOWBEER'S NEWS, REVIEWS & ARRIVALS - SCANDI MADNESS!

Hectic week as usual, with an endless amount of crazy new beers coming through the doors from our favorite Scandi producers. Fresh off the back of winning Champion Exhibitor at this years AIBA, Nogne O have a number of brilliant new beers & also Mikkeller are doing the same at a ridiculous rate, given he doesn’t actually have a brewery.

FILLING ON GROWLERS
Dieu du Ciel Corne du Diable IPA
We’ve been waiting on this one for a while & its finally here! The Corne du Diable is a US style IPA, with rich caramel & toffee malt presence but a big citrusy, piney bitterness on the finish. Certainly one for the hopheads & given we only have 1 keg, you’ll have to be quick. We will start filling growlers of it on Saturday & continue until the keg is dry! $25 for the fill, $40 including growler.
UP NEXT WEEK: Bridge Rd B2Bomber
