PUNKY  BREWSTER  JOCKEY  BOX

10L/20L/30L/50L KEGS

With the helping hands of a couple of keen beer engineers, we've managed to put together a set of Jockey Boxes for rent. These bad boys hook themselves up to a keg at one end and a bottle of CO2 on the other.

​The beer is then pressured through the metal coil on the inside which is packed full of ice. This means fresh, cold beer from a room temperature keg on the go. Suitable for all sorts of occasions; weddings, parties, day at the beach, funerals. The world is your oyster.

NORTH  END  OUD  BRUIN  SOUR  BROWN  ALE

16.00/L
7%
In the East of Flanders there exists a tradition of making brown ales aged in stainless steel tanks until they take on a level of refreshing acidity and a delicious subtle fruitiness. Sometimes they then combine these sour brown ales with beef to make the famous dish flamande carbonnade. This interpretation is brewed with a fruity Belgian yeast strain, rich malts, dried cherries, prunes and the addition of a yoghurt culture. Rich yet tart, malty yet fruity, a perfect addition to a hearty dinner table.

This unfiltered IPA showcases the pungent trio of Citra/Simcoe/Ekuanot hops in two separate dry hop additions. A stripped back malt base consisting only of ale malt with some oats for a soft mouthfeel provides the perfect base for these hops to sing with juicy aromas of passionfruit, mango, and orange. The lightly estery English ale yeast provides complimentary stonefruit esters which pair with the fruit cocktail of hops, and finishes medium bodied but with a reasonably assertive bitterness for balance.

PARROTDOG  KOWHAI  DOUBLE  IPA

$20.00/L
7.9%
In a ‘Double’ IPA a bigger pale malt base makes the beer significantly stronger, as you’d expect. But it’s all about providing a foundation, rather than balance; all the better to show off enormous quantities of massively aromatic New Zealand grown Riwaka and Australian Vic Secret hops. The combination is full of intensely juicy tropical and citrus flavours — and this beer lets them shine, lets them sing.
