Long time no see, Poodlefaker.
Another tasty brew by Craftwork 🍻 A must-visit when in βœ… Add it to your Kiwi

"Saison Poodlefaker is our Christmas beer. It is ruby-coloured , and balanced with noble hops, liberally spiced, and Southern Rata honey added at the end of the boil.
In Belgium, Christmas beers are rich and heavy for the cold months. Ours is lighter for a N.Z. summer Christmas."

Always a nice surprise when breweries create their version of typical Belgian beer styles. 🍻

Heyday Enkel Odd Assembly Belgian Ale
"A distinct ester profile, from the Trappist-inspired yeast, imparts a complex mouthfeel."

Dubbel Vision Belgian Dubbel
"Belgian Ale yeast adds layers of allspice, peppercorns, and cloves over the robust malt character."

@beersofmastodon

Two 440ml beer cans lying in the grass, label side up. 

On the left: Double Vision Dubbel Vision Belgian Dubbel - black label with a cartoon-ish monk in front of barrels. Text is wobbly, like fuzzy vision, seeing double.

On the right: Heyday Enkel Odd Assembly Belgian Ale - white label with black text and ditto cartoon figure, like a stick man or blob. Green accents in the back, grassy.

Always a pleasure to drop by Craftwork in for a Belgian-style brew and "Belgian fries with double mayo". πŸ˜‹
🍻
This version of their is a little bit sweeter than the OG but has nice spiced biscuit flavours as added bonus.

"Oude Relic - Our super Saison Tripel.... The French saison yeast we love with a strong grain bill, creating this unusual strong amber-coloured ale. Great for cellar aging."

Kicking off February aka with Halcyon by Wilderness Brewing πŸ‡³πŸ‡Ώ My all-time favourite Wilderness brew. 🍻

"...Flemish style red-brown ale, aged in ex pinot barrels. We then transferred the beer into a freshly emptied ex brandy barrel loaded up with local plums. We let this age for a further 18 months..."

Georgia’s #WildHeavenBeer released its Valley of Gold recently, a #BelgianStyle #PaleAle that the brewery created as an homage to #Orval, calling it (not inaccurately) β€œone of the greatest beers ever brewed.”
