Working Title Brew Co – Shakedown Lime Milkshake DIPA
Lime Milkshake; a polarising one for the WT team. A hit of nostalgia for some, and a complete abomination for others. Either way, we agreed it’d be fun to give it a shot. A rich, oat laden, protein heavy mash was injected with Cashmere, Citra and Motueka. lime purée was added during fermentation, to get that complete lime hit.
Whoa, that’s some heavy lime gear. Lime in the nose, in the flavour and a tantalising lime citrus finish. The rich, silky mouthfeel oozes with cream. This really shouldn’t work, but the citrus helps to balance the sweet body and with a dry citrus finish, this will leave you jonesing for another hit.
Working Title Brew Co – Reign Supreme Affogato & Cream Ale (with Coffee Supreme)
We’ve officially teamed up with perennial coffee masters Coffee Supreme, to challenge perceptions and make something really unique. Trying to emulate an Affogato, we’ve taken specially roasted Brazilian and Guatemalan beans and matched them to a malty, layered English style ale with lactose.
Coffee gelato floods the senses straight off. Delving into the beer, intricate layers of caramel biscuits are followed by poached pears and a hint of raisins. Like a dessert at one of those fancy places, you can moosh it in your face or be a bit classy and sip away, discussing gentrification these days.
Working Title Brew Co – Bubble Trouble Tutti Frutti Ice Cream Sour
Taking one of our favourite treats as a kid, we’ve endeavoured to transform tutti fruitti ice cream into a beer. A solid sour base loaded with Amarillo and Talus is the framework for the tropical juice explosion. The sour is serious, at pH3.2 but has a minerality that keeps it all in check.
This is juicy fruit chewing gum in a glass. Loaded with those tropical fruit flavours of pineapple, mango, passionfruit and banana, it’s an odd combo that seriously works. Juicy and sour, tropical and dry. Like a millennial chewing gum at a bus stop, it’s definitely better than it sounds.
