Big, black and deceivingly smooth. It might seem like quite an interesting time to launch a DoubleStout given that these past weeks have still felt like summer but we’ve held off for so long now that we even forget it’s in the tank sometimes… After a few pre-release kegs and a number of customer requests, we’ve decided that now is as good a time as any to release our Two Birds collaboration DoubleStout. This beer is a result of some impromptu planning and wanting to brew something bigger than we’d ever brewed before… During ‘The Road to Beervana’ last year in August, we had Jayne over from Two Birds Brewing (in Melbourne) to brew what would be our second collaboration beer with the Birds. Brewing this beer was quite an interesting time for us, as a lot of the planning for it was done on the day… including a last minute decision to scale it back because the mash tun was about to overflow. The beer’s been ready for sometime now, hence the pre-release kegs you might have seen pop up at some festivals, however, being a bit of an awkward time of year to launch a stout (summer) we decided to hold onto it for a bit longer. Well, we didn’t anticipate summer to hang around the way it has been but we did make a decision to release the DoubleStout in autumn and it’s here now… so, look out for it on tap at your local – bottles will be available in the coming weeks.
