Woolshed Tropical Sour

TASTING NOTES

Mango absolutely oozes from the can; it’s so dominant, in fact, it reminds me of being elbow deep in ripe, sticky mango juice as the seed is being sucked clean from fleshy fruit. The passionfruit is muted, only ever so subtly joining the party on the very back palate for the briefest of moments, contributing a little tartness. It’s definitely an easy-drinker, with a medium to medium-light body and a gentle sourness. Really, it’s all about that mango – so prominent, fresh and well… tropical. Welcome to summer.

BREWERY SNAPSHOT

After purchasing a ‘Brewmaster 1000-2E Microbrewery from Australian company Integrated Brewing Solutions in July 2008,the clean up and installation of the old Woolshed began. Woolshed is a zero waste brewery, utilising state of the art designs to use and re-use hot and cold water without the need for excessive heating. Also, with drainage troughs and a holding/settling tank,  all waste water from the brewery is used on their extensive garden.

Woolshed use all of their spent grain to feed their livestock. With further recent upgrades to their solar power, Woolshed are now in excess of 30kw helping to power the brewery and houseboats.
