Spotlight on Colonial Brewing

TASTING NOTES

Colonial Brewing South West Sour, 375ml Can, ABV 4.6%
South West Sour is a kettle soured and dry hopped beer, based on a wheat heavy malt bill for its full mouthfeel. Lactic acid acidity is delicately balanced with tropical aroma and flavour from US and NZ hops.

Colonial Watermelon And Raspberry Sour, 375ml Can, ABV 4.0%
South West Sour Watermelon & Raspberry is a fruity and refreshing twist on Colonial’s much loved South West Sour. Partially fermented with an acidifying bacteria in the brewhouse before undergoing a second fermentation with ale yeast, this is a modern sour style for modern palates. The addition of real Watermelon and Raspberries strikes the delicate balance between sweet and sessionable. Pouring a beautiful rose gold colour, this ale bursts with the flavours of Summer that will satisfy your thirst and be deliciously refreshing.

Colonial Brewing Pale Ale, 375ml Can, ABV 4.4%
This unique and under-stated Pale Ale –  inspired directly by the wonderful ‘Altbiers’ of Dusseldorf – is an immediately approachable medium-bodied beer, with hints of brooding plum on the nose, displaying soft, round and subtly rich, biscuit, nougat and nut malt accents on the forward palate, braced by a tangy – slightly peppery – mineral hop bite!

Colonial Brewing Porter, 375ml Can, ABV 6.0%
A combination of classic noble hop varieties and Australian grown Ella balance the malt with a gentle bitterness and a complimentary light tropical and spice aroma. Big and bold but not overpowering, it’s the perfect match for hearty, fire-kissed meats or dark chocolate desserts.

Colonial Brewing Draught Kolsch Ale, 375ml Can, ABV 4.8%
Pale gold in colour, Colonial Draught shows hints of lemon sorbet and is complimented by a subtle background of passionfruit and green herb. The nose flows to the palate which is tight, spotlessly clean, fresh, zesty and focussed, delivering a very approachable beer.
