Garage Project Surrender To The Void Affogato Gelato

TASTING NOTES

Surrender to the Void, an irregular series of outrageously decadent pitch black stouts brewed using an enormous, complex malt bill and mounds of debaucherous adjuncts. This time it’s a lovely day, so The Void downs a quadruple scoop waffle cone of vanilla affogato gelato with extra maple coated pecans on top. Watch out for brain freeze! Oops, too late. Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream

BREWERY SNAPSHOT

Based in Wellington, NZ, The Garage Project is Pete Gillespie, Jos Ruffell, and Ian Gillespie. When they started out, they were tiny. Garage Project wasn’t even micro brewing; it was a truly nano-brewery. When brewing on such a small scale, one can afford to take risks. That suited the guys from Garage Project, always on a quest to try something new. Three years have passed and they’ve grown, but that same ethos still shapes how they do things at the Garage. Whether they’re brewing 50 liters or 2000, they’re still there to take some risks, to have a bit of fun, and to try something new.

Brewer Pete Gillespie had worked for a decade in English breweries including Brakespear and Hepworth. He moved from Australia to Wellington before launching Garage Project with his brother Ian and a former video game designer, Jos Ruffell.
