Signature Brew — lovers of great music as well as great beer — launch two new beers this month, a passionfruit New England pale ale and a dark smoked lager.
Passions (5% ABV) is an over-hopped, hazy, and gloriously fruity beer that pays tribute to the force that drives both the bands Signature Brew love and the beer they make. The base is a juicy New England pale, with lots of oats and wheat, a huge tropical aroma, and a golden-yellow appearance. To taste, there’s a slight acidity from the passionfruit and lots of tropical fruit flavour, ending with a sweet finish.
Fresh from their collaboration with Mercury-shortlisted Sports Team, Signature Brew have teamed up with UK rappers DRS and Dynamite MC on In The Dark (5.1% ABV). Named after the artists’ new album, In The Dark is a complex dark lager made with beech-smoked malt, which evokes suggestions of an open fire and serves up dark fruit and cinder toffee tones, with the crisp edge of a lager.
