Shawinigan Handshake

Shawinigan Handshake

The Shawinigan Handshake is a hazy, peach-coloured beer with notes of bread, banana and spruce, reflecting the flavours of German yeast and Chinook hops. With explosive effervescence, the palate blends soft wheat flavours with bitter hops that linger on for a dry, refreshing finish.

Who it is for

This beer was inspired by the Brooklyner-Schneider Weisse and brewed in collaboration with two beer titans: Hans Peter Drexler and Garett Oliver. It is a nod to two men known for their iron fists and their keen sense of humour: one is a former Prime Minister from Shawinigan and the other a former National League coach, as well as to the now famous affectionate expression. This cheerful hybrid will fill Weizen and American IPA lovers with happiness.
