Albatross – Stigbergets Bryggeri 7.0%

What does it even mean ?

Looks like we’re on for a summer of whacky weather. And what have we done to deserve it? Well, probably quite a lot. Maybe we shouldn’t have shot that metaphorical Albatross. Maybe we shouldn’t have shot a thousand metaphorical albatrosses, in fact. But hej ho, here we are, and what can we do about it? We can brew. And we certainly have, brewed a little relief, for those unslack’d throats and bak’d black lips. A small relief for the Spring drought and July’s autumn storms and who knows what next?

What you need to know though

US style NEIPA 7%. Golden Promise base with oats. Dry hopped with Citra, Mosaic, Ekuanot and YCH 301 Cryo Mosaic. Straw coloured, unfiltered, creamy body with a low bitterness. And naturally, when it comes to our somewhat arbitrary bird logic, the bigger the bird, the bigger the dry-hop, and at 20 grams a litre the tropical fruit aroma is truly pungent.
