Slackwater's Beer seeker Joey Cardaccio joins Steph and Mikey in the radio pub today (Friday). Joey's procurement skills have turned Slackwater into a beer powerhouse in Utah. Check us out today at 2pm on 99.9FM KUAA.
Kiitos - Fonio: Fonio is a drought tolerant grass/grain that hails from West Africa. Kiitos is the only brewery in the western hemisphere to make a 100% Fonio beer. It pours completely clear. Some slight sake-esque fruit notes like apple, not tannic. Yuzu flavors make a big appearance here too along with some pleasant white peach flavors. The citrus qualities are strong and upfront. No hops here, it’s all the Fonio grain. 5.0% - Only at Kiitos.
Hopkins - Cole's "Helles" Kitchen: This smoked Helles was brewed with 100% local Solstice malt that was smoked with Beechwood sourced from outside of Logan, UT. It pours a crisp golden color with a nice head. The nose is dominated by pilsner malt, noble hops and light smoke. The taste has a light touch of smoky flavor to it as well as the hops. Good drinkability if you're a fan of mild bodied smoke beers. 5.0% - Only at Hopkins.
Here are this week's Small Batch Beers from Hopkins Brewing.
