Feral Brewing in CANS FINALLY

Warhog, Perth Local, Sly Fox

Sly Fox Summer Ale. This is, as always, a nice easy beer, cant notice too much difference between cans and bottles on this one. Its a slight bit more hoppier, maybe? the smell has a bit more range, maybe? Its very sessional, which is the point of a summer ale and I guess the cans here are more of a convenience factor.

Warhog American IPA. This is great, and as good from a can [a rather fresh new can] as when I have had it on tap. Smells fruity like passionfruit, has a lemony hop bitterness, obviously hop forward but still has a nice light malt that doesnt challenge the great hopping. Having this in cans for hop freshness and as a regular is a great idea.

Perth Local Lager. This is great. I think if distribution is good and its easy to get to it will probably be my regular [currently anything is my regular, but its mainly Coopers Sparkling or Pale Ale].Its a lager but unike most on the shelf here it has good real character. A nice hoppy interesting bitterness and a good mild yet flavorful malt taste.

Beer – 20/7/16 – Feral Brewing Ace of Base Imperial India Saison

Feral Brewing Brewpub series – Ace of Base Imperial India Saison

Made with Sorachi hops, which I love – Their Golden Ace Belgian Pale Ale, which used Sorachi, was one of the first beers to really turn me on to Hops [ the others being Sierra Nevadas Torpedo and Little Creatures Pale Ale]

This is…Its definitely a Saison, just amped up a fair bit. Smells fruity-yeasty, peppery, crushed ants, a bit of citrus…Its a cloudy, light yellow colour, Big head on pouring and zero to minimal lacing. A light fizz for carbonation.

The taste, again peppery, strong saison yeast character, not much of the citrusy-lemony Sorachi I love, but its in there at a low level, and it definitely comes through in the hops bitterness.

This reminds me a lot of the first Saison I tried to make, looks like I didnt fuck up at all if this is a saleable beer haha.

Its NOT BAD, but I really wish it was closer to the classic Golden Ace, what a great beer that was. If you like Saisons, this will give you more Saison in one bottle than you may have ever wanted.

Thanks to the guys at International Beer Shop for keeping a 4 pack aside for me.
