Part of #Febrewary Beau’s marks International Gruit Day (Feb. 1st) with this brand-new gruit recipe, designed to celebrate this unique centuries-old brewing style. Gruit Ale History & Style A gruit is an ale that showcases the use of botanicals rather than hops in its spicing. OG (Original Gruit) harkens back to the roots of gruit production by employing three of the most common historical ingredients in the brew: Labrador Tea, Bog Myrtle and Yarrow. Tasting Notes This deep gold, slightly hazy gruit has a mildly citrusy, herbal aroma with some malt notes. The flavour is balanced between malty sweetness and herbal bitterness. The finish is medium-long with lingering tannins and a hint of spice. Food Pairings Chicken poached in OG with dumplings, mild Blue cheeses, cream cheese & yoghurt cheesecake with apple & rosehip gelée, Alsatian style chèvre tart flambée.

    On tap at Arrow and Loon. Pours a very small foamy head and has a hazy orangey appearance. Weak lacing. Aromas of oranges, hints of yeast and spices. Flavours are quite fruity, citrus, fairly spiced, the gruit doesn’t stick out as much, it’s a bit subtle. More balanced than the Bog Water and not as spiced. Quite sweet and malty. Seems like a bit of lavender in the finish. Good retention. Medium bodied mouthfeel.

    Enjoyed at the Hintenburg Public House. Part of the FeBREWary party. Pours a hazy golden colour with a creamy warm cap, good lacing and retention. Fruity herbal aromas from the gruit with notes of gooseberries. Same for the start of the taste, but has a grainy finish with hints of vanilla. A nice refreshing fruity traditional ale.
