From Hearthstone Brewery in North Vancouver in collaboration with West Coast Canning comes their “Cool Hand Cuke” a cucumber sour ale made for the new CanCity canned beer festival in Vancouver. The beer pours a golden colour with a small white head that dissipates quickly. The aroma is comprised of cucumbers with a hint for tartness. The flavour starts out with a definite lactobacillus tartness without a big acidic hit followed by cucumbers and a hint of malts. The alcohol content comes in at 4% with an IBU of 00. This is a seriously fantastic beer and I hope that they plan on making more of this in the near future!
If you want to try this beer check out the CanCity Beer Festival happening soon. Purchase your tickets here.
