Sur Fest Tomorrow

It's truly the summer of sour now To Øl has arrived! Just in time for our tap launch tomorrow too.
From midday tomorrow we'll be tapping three very intriguing To Øl beers:

Nelson Survin: Sour mashed IIPA feat. Nelson Sauvin (9%)
Sur Amarillo: Sour Mashed IPA feat. Amarillo (7.5%)
Likeweisse: Berliner Weisse (sour wheat) dry hopped with Motueka & Citra.

As with all of our tap sours, we're serving these up in the excellent 200ml TeKu glasses as well as the standard pours.

Tomorrow only we'll also be serving up all three in a tasting flight of 150ml tasting glasses, which will run you $15.

Beer is Charity

We've been part of Garage Project's Kegs for Christmas from the beginning and this year is no different!

We've drawn the excellent Dirty Boots APA (6.6%) as our K4C beer:
"Hop into the mosh pit. Dirty Boots, grunge inspired all American pale ale, especially for Music2Brew2, a hard core, hoppy celebration of the tunes that inspire the beer we brew."

We'll be tapping Dirty boots at midday on Saturday, and all proceeds from the sale of Dirty Boots will be donated to Kaibosh. So basically, you're making a donation to Kaibosh and you get a beer to say thanks!

Additionally, our tip jar will become a donation jar for Kaibosh in case you feel like adding to your donation.

NRT: Watermelon Weisse

To Øl are dominating the email today, but they feature once again in next week's New Release Tuesday slot with Braziller Weisse Watermelon Berliner Weisse.

Billed as a "Super easy, refreshing, tart Berliner Weisse brewed with watermelon for extra fruitiness. Refreshingly sour with a huge hoppe fruity finish"

We tap Braziller Weise at 5pm this Tuesday as usual, and will be serving up in 200ml TeKu, 300ml fancy or 473ml US-pints.
