Holy Smokes ! June 19th 2014 BlogWhat a combination - great barbeque from Calgary’s Holy Smokes along with the six KWM beers chosen for this class. A tasty way to ease ourselves into the start of summer!

- Howe Sound Lager - This Dortmunder style lager is a pale golden lager that is balanced between sweet malt and dry hop flavours. The lager has a clean, dry finish with some mild fruitiness delivered by the US version of German Hallertau hops and traditional Polish Lublin. - $14.49
- Mt Begbie Powerhouse Pale - A generous portion of lightly roasted malt gives this beer a smooth yet distinctive character. Pale ale worth diving into! Ideal with spicy foods. - $5.29
- Maine Beer Company Peeper - An American-style pale ale brewed one barrel at a time. The malt bill is built on American two-row malt and accented by Crystal 10, Vienna, and white wheat malts. Magnum hops give the beer a nice clean bittering and Amarillo, Cascade, and Centennial hop varieties provide a pleasant floral and citrusy hop flavour. A healthy dose of additional Amarillo and Centennial are dry hopped to give this beer an inviting hop aroma. The beer is fermented with a neutral yeast strain and allowed to dry out so it finishes crisp and clean. - $9.39
- Mikkeller 20 Hops IPA - Brewed and bottled by Mikkeller at De Proef Brouwerij in Belgium. It is made with water, malt (Pilsner, Munich, Cara-crystal), oat flakes, generous helpings of 20 different hop varieties and yeast. - $6.99
- Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Urbock - A smoked bock beer for Bamberg’s strong beer season (October through December). Matured for months in ancient rock-cellars underneath Bamberg and tapped freshly from the oakwood cask. Similar to, but much bigger than the classic Maerzen style. - $4.99
- Jolly Pumpkin Madrugada Obscura - A Belgian inspired stout that is as dark as a moonless midnight, brimming of roasted malts and bitter hops. It will keep you good company in all places, be they light or dark. - $14.69
The Evening’s two favourites:
- Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Urbock
- Maine Beer Peeper
