Capitaine Simcoe
Capitaine Simcoe
This beer underwent a special treatment from the beginning to the end: sour mashing process,moderate hopping during the boiling phase, followed by a fierce Simcoe attack. The result: A blond with greenish highlights featuring a powerful nose ofKey lime pie and fresh herb aromas. Its tart palate evokes flavours of lemon and passion fruit yogurt, all of which stretch out to a dry and exquisitely fruity finish.

Did you know that
True gateway to the world of sour beers, this SMaSH process (Single Malt and Single Hop) translates into a hybrid style: a sour IPA. This beer is largely inspired by the sour mash technique used for the Old World Berliner Weiss and the hopping process used for the New World IPAs. The Capitaine Simcoe stands at the helm in a perfect balance between lactic acids and bitterness.
͞Thus it is the part of a madman, in a calm sea to desire a storm with a head-wind; but that of a wise man, to withstand the storm as best he may””
Who it is for
The intent behind each SMaSh is to help you discover the properties and characteristics of a specific hop strain, this one having the dual intent of paying tribute to American Romanticism. This version is designed for anyone drawn to the open sea, for whale hunters, and for the recreational boaters sailing around Melville Island.
