BIG SMOKE is part of the Collaboration Series which is a succession of small-batch brews created by independent brewers working together to create new beers that push the boundaries of taste. This unique, strong, smoky ale was jointly brewed by James Walton (Storm Brewing) and Jack Bensley (Russell Brewing) using 10% Peat Smoked Malt and Bravo and Willamette Hops. "We used a ridiculous amount of malt in this brew" says James, "and we are very pleased with the result". Big Smoke is a malt-forward beer with a big smoke aroma and a well-balanced hop finish. Storm Brewing and Russell Brewing Company were both founded in June of 1995 and have been producing craft beer for the local urban community for 16 years. The fine ales and lagers of both breweries can be found on tap at many fine restaurants and pubs in British Columbia. We hope you enjoy our Big Smoke collaboration ale. Cheers!
