Style: Pale Ale - American

ABV: 5    IBU: 35

Pesky Pig Pale Ale is named after Francis the Pig who stole the hearts of carnivores and vegetarians alike in the summer of 1990. This 220 pound porker evaded his fate by jumping a wall, navigating the slaughterhouse and escaping into Red Deer's parkland. Our Pesky Pig Pale Ale is meant to really let the hops sing. The malt presence is quiet but supportive of the rambunctious hop flavours of grapefruit, papaya, and other tropical fruits. The usual hop bitterness has been reigned in while the flavours and aroma have been allowed to run amok, making for a delicious, intense, yet ultimately quaffable beer.

Open Road is for those looking for something a little darker and malt forward. Pumpernickel bread and raisins dominate the palate but finishes with chocolate, while the hops lend just a hint of citrus and pine to balance out the sweetness of this easy drinking dark beer.

ABV: 5    IBU: 15

Golden Gaetz showcases the renowned quality of Canadian Malts. The malt furnishes the backbone of light bread or biscuit with sweet corn, while the hops provide balance with a hint of lemon followed by black pepper and just a whisper of dark berries. It's lower strength and bitterness make it the perfect beer to enjoy on a patio, while camping, or pretty much anywhere!

Troubled Monk - Buck Tooth Belgian White When Doris Forbes rescued Mickey the Beaver in 1939, an unusual friendship was born. Mickey would chew on the wooden furniture, try to 'dam' up the doors and would become grumpy when Doris was away. Despite Mickey's troubled behaviour, their odd friendship grew. While Mickey's fame spread and he soon became beloved throughout Red Deer and the world, Doris and Mickey's bond remained strong, proving that sometimes the best friends are the most unlikely. The Troubled Monk Belgian White (Witbier) was brewed to toast their legendary friendship. Enjoy its creamy, light body, citrus and spicy notes with your own unusual friends.

Style: IPA - Brut

ABV: 7    IBU: 20

The long awaited follow up to the first Blindman Brewing and Troubled Monk Brewery collaboration is finally here. Two breweries that are so close that they even shared a podium at the Alberta Brewing Awards have put their heads together to give you the latest IPA style- Brut IPA. This bone dry IPA uses extra enzymes to convert all of the sugar into food for the yeast. The result is a hop forward delight with no residual sugars and extra carbonation. Almost like hoppy Champagne! This tropical fruit and citrus flavoured hop heaven is going to disappear fast so you had better grab it now- You never know how long it will take for these breweries to come together again.

We are please to crow about this new seasonal release and recent silver medal winner at the 2018 Alberta Beer Awards.

A slight spicyness from the Belgian yeast and a subtle hop bitterness balance the rich sweetness. A great beer to savour as long as you are mindful of the 8.4% ABV!
