BIG ROCK BREWERY INC.: CUVEE BRU 2014 DRUIVENBIER

Big Rock Brewery Inc. is offering its 2014 Alchemist Edition Cuvee Bru. Grape and grain converge in this sophisticated libation, another successful collaboration between Big Rock brewmaster Paul Gautreau, and Therapy Vineyards and Guesthouse, located on the Naramata Bench in British Columbia.

Legend tells of a Belgian brewer who, in one magical moment, blended the sweet snap of grape with a lively young ale to create the first druivenbier (which is Flemish for grape beer).

In this collaboration, Therapy Vineyards offered up its best Pinot Gris grapes, and Mr. Gautreau paired them with three Big Rock malts and Hallertau hops. The Big Rock difference in its 2014 offering comes from the pure honey added to this brew, sourced from its own bees at the brewery.

The light malt flavours with melon, subtle pear and honey, pours a deep golden yellow. Medium carbonation, mildly sweet, it pours a deep golden yellow, perfect to enjoy with friends and family over the holidays and on into the new year.

Cuvee Bru is available in 750-millimetre champagne-style Italian bottles with cork and cage for a limited time only in Alberta. To find out where, visit the company website, check out its beer finder, and follow the company on Twitter and Facebook.

What is the Alchemist Edition?

In brewing, as in life, you have to take risks to reap rewards. For the Alchemist Edition, brewmaster Mr. Gautreau ventures into unchartered territory to craft bold, small-batch beers that pay no heed to the rules of what came before. Adventurous and experimental, these risky brews are their own reward.
