Lunch-Box-Lager-1000x1000

Lunch Box Lager

  • Style: Lager
  • ABV: 4.0%

Lagers are light and clean, with a delicate balance between hop and malt. The yeast character is subdued but evident in a well-made, cold fermented lager. We use traditional lager techniques to bring out the best lager characteristics. It is cold fermented, and cold conditioned to give the crisp body you expect from a lager. There is a light and clean hop character, and a dry and refreshing finish.

Pacific-Peak-XPA-1000x1000

Pacific Peak XPA

  • Style: XPA
  • ABV: 4.5%

XPA’s are a relatively new style to the craft beer scene. They are typically lighter than a Pale Ale, but with the same level of hop character. Our XPA uses new world, and old- world hops to add a level of familiarity. There is a wonderful play between tropical fruit and a spicy pithy bitterness. The malt is light and semi-dry to add a layer of sweetness to balance.

Freefall Pale Ale

  • Style: Pale Ale
  • ABV: 4.9%

Our Pale Ale is an Australian twist on a classic American style. This beer typifies the type of session beer we love to drink at Five Barrels. It is light and easy drinking with a good smack of hop flavours and aromas, chased by a light biscuity body. We think that a good Pale Ale has to strike the right balance between the malt and the hops; it can’t be too sweet, but it can’t be too bitter either. It’s all about balance, and we think ours is pretty good.

Little Nipper Hazy IPA

  • Style: Hazy IPA
  • ABV: 5.3%

New England IPAs were born out of a need to brew an IPA that focuses solely on hop flavours. It combines a high level of protein and hop oil to create a velvety smooth beer that is hazy, and juicy sweet. Little Nipper uses a variety of hops that enable us to create a beer packed with fresh tropical fruit flavours. We use an English yeast strain to add an extra element of fruit, while keeping the beer rich and juicy.

Navigator Red IPA

  • Style: Red IPA
  • ABV: 6.5%

Darker doesn’t always mean stronger. Red IPA’s usually carry a maltiness that you don’t find with paler styles. The malt character can range from a light caramel to full on rich toffee and toast. It has a wonderful fruit, pine and spice balance that develops on the palate. It has a firm bitterness, but the caramel sweetness rounds it out to ensure your senses aren’t overwhelmed.

Night Cap Milk Stout

  • Style: Milk Stout
  • ABV: 6.0%

Milk Stouts contain the non-fermentable lactose sugar to add a velvety smooth body to a rich roasted beer. These are the original dessert beers and are a perfect way to cap off a meal or just enjoy whenever you please. The rich chocolatey flavour is apparent in the aromatics and follow through to your last sip. A velvety smooth body is sweet, but a subtle bitterness from the roasted grains and the hops helps balance it out to finish well. Enjoy a little warmer and observe how the flavours develop.

Crafted as a white stout, this unique brew features a blend of pale grain, wheat, and oats To achieve a velvety smooth texture, lactose has been incorporated into the mix Steering away from traditional roasted malts of a dark stout, we’ve opted for coffee concentrate from Sprocket Roasters, introducing a rich depth of roasted quality The infusion of vanilla and cocoa nibs during fermentation imparts the familiar sweet and chocolate essence of a stout that we’re all familiar with.
