Great Raft Brewing Mixed Feelings
For our third collaboration with Bluejacket, we brewed a mixed fermentation saison with a French ale strain and blend of various brettanomyces. This beer exudes a subtle funk aroma and finishes dry like a classic saison. The heavy whirlpool addition of Nelson Sauvin hops shine through with notes of lime and orange. 35 IBU, 7% ABV
Great Raft Brewing Provisions and Traditions V4 -
For the fourth release in our charitable beer series with the John Besh Foundation, we teamed up with Chef Kelly Fields of Willa Jean. This dark rye saison is our attempt to create a beer that mimics the flavors found in a rye pumpernickel bread. 12 IBU, 7% ABV
Great Raft Brewing Southern Drawl -
A hop forward lager with complex, citrusy aromas. Mildly traditional...Wildly drinkable. 28 IBU, 5.2% ABV
