Fresh Hop Keller Whale
6.8% | - IBU
Fresh Hop Keller Whale is an unfiltered Kellerbier lager hopped with fresh locally grown Sterling in the whirlpool. Delicate floral and citrus aroma. Soft on the palate with a slight breadiness and hints of mandarin, honeysuckle and lemon. Light bitterness and a clean finish. Keller Whale is our third and final fresh hop brew of the 2022 season.
Subdola is fermented with a unique strain of Kveik that produces very clean, or lager like, fermentation character even at higher temperatures. This 'sneaky' beer is brewed with corn and rice to add body and complexity and dry hopped with Halletau Blanc, a new world German noble hop varietal. Expect lots of floral and sweet malty aroma, biscuity grain character with earthy hop profile and balanced bitterness. Super clean, crisp and extraordinarily refreshing!
Salute!
Our friends at Cellarmaker came by and schooled us on making intensely hoppy beer again. Tons of Nelson, along with Riwaka, NZ Cascade, and a bit of Simcoe give this beer some serious hop impact. We packed as many hops into the kettle as we could fit to give this beer a firm bitterness and saturated mouthfeel, and topped it off with a hefty dry hop for extra aroma. This is definitely the most hops we’ve used since our last collab with Cellarmaker.
The Nelson came from both breweries; our’s is more straight guava-y, while theirs has that distinctive ripe, tropical diesel. Cellarmaker was kind enough to let us use their hard to find Riwaka for some passion fruit and gummy bear notes. A splash of NZ Cascade adds some citrus to the mix, while a little Simcoe fills it out with some punchyness. Clean Cal ale yeast and a simple malt bill of 2-row and oats lets those hops shine.
Now we’d like you to meet the beer, brewed especially for these two fantastic organizations! The Benefit Brew Citrus Lager is light in body yet full of flavour and easy to drink. Subtle aromas of malted barley and flaked corn are balanced with a light, crisp bitterness. Bright notes of tangerine and lemon round it all out, making this a refreshing lager that keeps you coming back for more.
Brewed for warm days in the sun and packaged fresh for your enjoyment. This golden-hued lager balances gentle corn sweetness, light hop bitterness, and aroma with a crisp, clean finish.
Highlight:
Shifting seasons brings on our Mexican lager, light and refreshing with a gentle bitterness. Brewed with 100% domestic malt and 100% PNW hops.
We invite you to party with our unfiltered, dry-hopped pilsner brewed with all-German Ireks malt and hopped with Indie Hops’ Lorien and Hopsteiner experimental HS17701. The resulting crisp lager is floral and citrusy, reminiscent of sencha green tea, lemon peel, and wildflowers.
