#Repost @munchingcanuck Choc-A-Block 5.2% abv Rye Stout by @shipwright_brewing_company So I finally tried beer from Shipwright! I think I bought this crowler back in late May? or something that feels like a lifetime ago. It’s been chilling in the beer fridge ever since... I think that was in part from buying all these other beers. Honestly I regret not getting to this sooner but sometimes a person doesn’t want to commit to drinking a whole crowler you know? Though I’m s...o so glad I opened this last Friday night. What an absolutely fantastic stout from this smaller ish craft brewery residing in Lunenberg Nova Scotia. Since I hadn’t tried anything from them before I decided to just go with my beer drinking preferences and grabbed what sounded good. The Choc-A-Block is a rye stout as dark as the night sky. The aromatics just punch the senses. You get some delicious roasted coffee notes,some subtle chocolate and just a hint of spice from the rye. It’s nice now and then to get a stout that’s not sweet and I have to applaud them on this beer, I personally really enjoyed it. Though drinking a crowler myself is always a bit much. I’m also glad to check these folks off my CBANS brewers list but it hopefully won’t be the last visit. Thanks for the wonderful beer Shipwright. Cheers folks and keep enjoying the world of craft beer-MC See more

NEW BREW Ship’s Biscuit Kveik IPA (6.2% 60 IBU) Continuing with our Kveik series, Ship’s Biscuit is our West Coast IPA Kveik hybrid. This time the KRISPY strain was fermented at the other end of the scale at 28C giving a much more tropical profile from the yeast. Brewed with a combination of Golden Promise, CaraBelge, Flaked Barley and Amber Malt then hopped and dry hopped with Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe. A very soft mouthfeel showcasing flavours of honey, grapefruit, pineapp...le with a bit of pithy bitterness on the finish. Ship's biscuits or hard tack was a vital part of a seaman's diet in the years before the introduction of canned food in the mid-nineteenth century. It is used for sustenance in the absence of perishable foods, commonly during long sea voyages. IPA’s were also made to last long sea voyages where the addition of hops acted as a preservative. See the connection? Plus we just liked the name....ok?

Cutwater Kölsch is back on tap, after a brief dry spell!

Back Harbour Kveik Black Lager, Our Latest Brew! (5.5%, 25 IBU) Back Harbour is the second of our pseudo lager Kveik series. An all Munich base plus an array of several toasted and roasted malts brining flavours of cacao, cassis, caramel and espresso. The KRISPY Kveik strain fermented at the low end of the threshold under pressure then lagered for a quick two weeks. Medium bodied yet still retains enough crispness to remain refreshing. *Available on tap at the brewery only; for pints and Crowler cans to-go!

Introducing Styrbord Kveik Lager! 4.4%, 5 IBU The first in our Kveik series, a blend of Pilsner and Oat malt make up this easy drinking hybrid lager. Flavours of honey, light banana and melon. Using the KRISPY Kveik strain, which is a combination of two Skare family varieties, make for a refreshing balance between subtle farmhouse notes and classic lager crispness. Very lightly hopped in the kettle with Bru 1, then delicately dry hopped with Simcoe and Bru 1. Styrbord is Nor...wegian (as is this yeast strain) for Starboard! The term starboard derives from the Old English steorbord, meaning the side on which the ship is steered. Before ships had rudders on their centrelines, they were steered with a steering oar at the stern of the ship on the right hand side of the ship, because more people are right-handed. Adjust your coordinates and steer yourself towards Shipwright and join us for a pint or Crowler can to-go!

*New Brew!!* Surf Side Dry Hopped Sour 5.0% Our second sour of the season is a lovely balance between juicy acidity and tropical aromatics. A combination of pale ale, wheat and honey malt then dry hopped with equal amounts of Bru-1 and Citra. Aromas of grapefruit and lychee lead to pleasantly tart flavours of peach, citrus and pineapple. One sip and you may find yourself on the south shore with a Crowler koozie in-hand, headed for the surf side!
