NEW RELEASE: HALA PINEAPPLE SOUR

This one-of-a-kind brew combines Canadian 2-Row barley, Canada White Wheat, and Flaked Oats for a luxuriously smooth foundation that perfectly complements our infusion of vibrant fruits.

Our brewers introduced 42 lbs of pure pineapple essence and 84 lbs of luscious mango puree into the fermentation process. Fermented with the renowned Lalamand Sourviasia yeast, this ale delivers a delightful tartness that plays with the fruity flavors of pineapple and mango.

The story behind the beer

Hawaiians called the pineapple halakahiki, meaning “foreign hala” because it resembled the fruit of the hala tree. The hala tree’s fruit are not edible but the leaves were an important resource used to weave mats, hats and even canoe sails. Today visitors may think the hala tree looks like a pineapple tree, but don’t be fooled. Being in the bromeliad family of plants, pineapples grow low to the ground and often have sharp, spiny serrated leaves.
