North X Fuerst Wiacek

Barley, Oats, Hops, Yeast

Mosaic, Idaho7, Cryo Pop, Strata

Our fifth collaboration with Berlin’s Fuerst Wiacek sees us utilise an experimental yeast strain that unlocks an abundance of new flavours. Along with a grist full of creamy oats we mashed in the beer with Cascade hops, this method enhances the WHC Lab Hop Unlock yeast’s natural ability to biotransform compounds found in malt and hops to unleash thiols, that are usually achievable by our ordinary brewing techniques. White gummy bears, grape, honey melon and passion-fruit aroma kick off this succulent Pale Ale. A whirlpool addition of Yakima Chief's CRYO POP blend sets a base of fruit cocktail. Big doses of Mosaic, Idaho 7 and Strata unify and bring a punch of pink grapefruit, orange sorbet, cherry and fleshy pink guava all laid on a rounded and slightly sweet base with a drying sherbert finish. Be rest-assured, there is a hell of a lot packed into this Pale Ale.
