Sawdust City and Mom ‘n Hops releasing Guava Pale Ale
Mom ‘n Hops joined Sawdust City Brewing Co in November and December to create a collaborative one-off beer based around the Mexican guava.
Dubbed The Pale Mexican Rides Again, the American-style pale ale incorporates 2-row and Munich malts boiled with Sorachi Ace and Motueka hops plus an extensive dry-hopping with Galaxy alongside heaps of fresh, perfectly ripe guava.
Expect a hop-forward, excessively tropical ale at 34 IBUs and 5.9% ABV with notes of passionfruit, citrus and of course, guava.
The Pale Mexican Rides Again is being poured in Bracebridge on Thursday, December 20 at the Sawdust City tap takeover at Griffin Gastropub.
A second batch will also appear somewhere to be announced.
From Sam Corbeil at Sawdust City Brewing Co.:
The Pale Mexican Rides Again – Now this hear ale was a collaboration we did with Chris of the website Mom’n’Hops. Coverin’ all the goins on in the Ontario craft beer circuit, Mom’n’Hops is new to the scene but they be tryin’ to get out there and let y’all know that they mean business. Now me and Chris we sat down, drank a few pints and came up with a beer that would use the wildly aromatic Mexican Cream Guava. The Pale Mexican is an American style Pale Ale hopped with Motueka, Sorachi Ace, Summit and Galaxy hops. Floral and citrus, it should be a drinker. But there ain’t much of it, so get it before it’s gone.
Perched upon his majestic white steed, the Pale Mexican stands atop the dusty mountain. The wind whips the cold desert dust across his face. His poncho ruffles quietly as a hand slowly emerges. He pulls his hat down to cover his eyes. Then like a flash of lightning, he snaps his reigns across the back of his mighty beast and the massive steed rears back onto it’s hind legs. It swings it’s front hooves wildly in the air then brings them crashing back down to earth. And with that The Pale Mexican runs off into the distance, leaving as quickly as he rode in. A dusty cloud of desert sand is all that remains of our hero. Via con Dios, Pale Mexican. Via con Dios!
