Stone & Wood Lovely Bubbly

TASTING NOTES

Stone and Wood’s 5th instalment in the Counter Culture Series is the Lovely Bubbly, a brut rose sour made especially for the celebratory season. This delightfully blush co-ferment beer with chardonnay juice, chardonnay yeast, lactobacillus and thousands of fresh strawberries, balances sweetness and soft sour pinch with a dry crisp finish.

BREWERY SNAPSHOT

Stone & Wood Brewing Company was established in 2008. The three boys – Brad, Jamie and Ross had spent many years working in the beer business. The dream was to quit ‘working for the man’, shed the corporate garbage and get back to basics. As the original brewers of the Northern Rivers, they built their first brewery at the eastern tip of Australia, in a part of the world where people enjoy having a beer when relaxing after catching a wave, catching a band at the pub or just catching up with friends. It’s that sort of place.

DID YOU KNOW?

Stone and Wood acknowledge the reliance they have on their Earth to enable them to produce good beer which inspired them to start their Green Feet program. Green Feet is a company wide program they’ve been working on for a couple of years now. It’s about minimising their footprint on the Earth through striving to not only reduce, reuse and recycle but also exploring innovative practices by reimagining the ecology of brewing.
