Indeed, it adds an extra layer of noble spice that piques the nostrils from the get go, while also bringing the more vinous notes to the forefront. 🌱 🍇🍊

N5 is a German Pilsner from @nanocinco hopped solely with Tettnanger. It really showcases the full earthy, herbal, floral and slightly peppery profile of the Tettnanger hops on the nose, all supported by ample hints of dough. More fresh baked bread follows on the sip, complimented by a light touch of honey.

Following Brett Never Sleeps, the second collaboration etween @suttonbrouerie and @beerism is Saison des Insomniaques. Going hoppier than usual, this Saison is hopped with Citra, Amarillo and Galaxy and primary fermented with the house Brett yeast.

This year Flanelle is also an American Pale Ale from @5eBaron, inspired by the more classic Pacific Northwest brews of yesteryear. Indeed, it’s hopped heavily with Citra (making up 90% of the hop bill) as well as a touch of Columbus in support. 🌲 ⛰️ 🍺

Lager lovers across the province rejoice as @bierlagerbrau have brought traditional Czech lagering to Quebec!
